The two were driving home from a trip to the desert during which the \u201cHoney Boy\u201d star allegedly woke Twigs while in a rage and choked her.<\/p>\n

Twig, whose real name is Tahliah Debrett Barnett, also claimed LaBeaouf knowingly gave her a sexually transmitted disease. <\/p>\n

At the time, LaBeouf responded to Twigs\u2019 allegations, saying, \u201cI\u2019m not in any position to tell anyone how my behavior made them feel.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have no excuses for my alcoholism or aggression, only rationalizations. I have been abusive to myself and everyone around me for years. I have a history of hurting the people closest to me. I\u2019m ashamed of that history and am sorry to those I hurt. There is nothing else I can really say.\u201d<\/p>\n

Twigs met LaBeouf after she joined the cast of \u201cHoney Boy\u201d in 2018. However, they didn\u2019t start dating until after filming wrapped on the movie \u2014 at which point, the \u201cTransformers\u201d star was separated from his wife, Mia Goth<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"FKA Twigs is no longer pursuing her abuse lawsuit against Shia LaBeouf.
