“Behind the Curtain: FKA Twigs Unveils the Dark Truth of Her ‘Abusive’ Romance with Shia LaBeouf”
The judge reportedly said depositions for FKA Twigs and LaBeouf had to be completed by mid-January.
She said: “I’m sure it’s painful for both of them. I don’t want to minimize that. But they have to put this part of the case behind them.”
Nevertheless, before ending the hearing, the judge made one more pitch to the parties, encouraging them to settle, as per Rolling Stone.
“I hope they can find some way to resolve this without airing of a lot of private facts in a public place,” the judge said.
In December 2020, FKA Twigs filed a lawsuit against LaBeouf, accusing him of relentless physical, emotional, and mental abuse, including an incident where he drove recklessly and assaulted her, as well as knowingly giving her a sexually transmitted disease, Bored Panda previously reported.

In 2019, the singer, who dated LaBeouf from 2018 to 2019, was in a car driven by the actor, who was speeding toward Los Angeles.
According to an exposé published by The New York Times in January 2021, the actor was driving recklessly, removed his seatbelt, and threatened to crash unless she professed her love for him, the lawsuit stated.
Moreover, the lawsuit centers on an incident where LaBeouf allegedly choked the British artist during a trip and later assaulted her at a gas station after she pleaded to be let out of the car.
