Grace Jabbari Drops Assault and Defamation Lawsuit Against Jonathan Majors

In a significant legal development, Grace Jabbari, the ex-girlfriend of actor Jonathan Majors, has officially withdrawn her assault and defamation lawsuit against him, marking a notable turn in their contentious relationship.

According to court documents filed on Thursday, Nov. 21, and obtained by PEOPLE, Jabbari submitted a stipulation of dismissal with prejudice, revealing that both parties, represented by their respective attorneys, have agreed that “all claims against Defendant in the above-captioned action are hereby dismissed with prejudice,” effectively closing the case.

The resolution of this lawsuit comes after Jabbari had initially filed the civil action against Majors in the Southern District of New York back in March, following a tumultuous period marked by allegations of domestic violence.

In the lawsuit, Jabbari detailed claims against Majors, alleging a “pattern of pervasive domestic abuse that began in 2021 and extended through 2023,” painting a distressing picture of their relationship.

One particular incident that Jabbari cited occurred in September 2022, during which she alleged that Majors threw her against the hood of her car, later dragging her into their home where he “started hitting her head against the marble floor while strangling her until she felt she could no longer breathe,” following a prior argument.

The lawsuit further alleges that after this violent episode, Majors reached out to Jabbari through text messages, urging her to remain silent about the incident and expressing concern for his career, rather than showing remorse for the physical suffering he caused her.

Jabbari initiated the lawsuit after Majors was found guilty of misdemeanor assault in the third degree and harassment in the second degree last December, stemming from a reported altercation between them in March 2023, further complicating his legal troubles.

In her lawsuit, Jabbari accused Majors of defaming her “following his conviction and prior to sentencing” when he participated in a high-profile interview with ABC News, where he vehemently denied any wrongdoing, stating that she was fabricating her claims, and asserting, “I have never laid [my] hands on a woman.”
