Shia LaBeouf addressed the recent allegations of abuse from hisformer girlfriend, FKA Twigs,on Jon Bernthal’sReal Onespodcast. He briefly alluded to the claims andsaid,“I hurt that woman. And in the process of doing that, I hurt many other people, and many other people before that woman. I was a pleasure-seeking, selfish, self-centered, dishonest, inconsiderate, fearful human being.” He also called Twigs a “saint”who “saved my fucking life.” LaBeoufcontinued,“Had she not intervened in my life and not created the avenue for me to experience ego death, I’d either have a really mediocre existence or I’d be dead in full.”
He didn’t mention her by name, but he did continue to talk about the accusations in another story about his recovery. He mentioned three women in a story about his recovery: his wife, Mia Goth; presumably Twigs; and another former girlfriend. When talking about breaking up with someone, LaBeouf stated, “This isn’t my wife. My wife is not involved in my life at this point. And I got this one, who’s not the one who accused me of this shit.” He also admitted to not disclosingsexually transmitted infectionsto his partners, and in Twigs’s lawsuit, she claimedhe infected her with an STD.
LaBeouf previouslydenied “each and every” one of the allegationsto the New YorkTimes.He also mentioned Twigs in alettertoDon’t Worry Darlingdirector Olivia Wilde when discussing the ongoing lawsuit, “My failings with Twigs are fundamental and real, but they are not the narrative that has been presented. There is a time and a place to deal with such things, and I am trying to navigate a nuanced situation with respect for her and the truth, hence my silence.”
