ActorJonathan Majorshas reportedly settled a lawsuit filed by his ex-girlfriend, Grace Jabbari, stemming from their highly-publicized trial, where the actor was found guilty of two misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment. Jabbari filed the lawsuit in March 2024, stemming fromallegations on Majors' endthat he had never physically assaulted a woman before.
According toThe Hollywood Reporter, Jabbari’s lawyer Brittany Henderson claims that the lawsuit was “favorably settled” after legal representatives for both parties appeared in court together to say that a deal had been reached. Terms of the agreement have ultimately, however, not been disclosed, and there has been no official comment from Majors on the matter.
It all began with Majors' June 06, 2025, arrest for domestic violence in New York City, following an incident that allegedly occured between Jabbari and the actor in a chauffeured car earlier that day. The actor was found guilty on two of the four misdemeanor counts of assault and harassment for which he was arrested.

Kang the Conqueror actor Jonathan Majors finally speaks out about Robert Downey Jr. being cast as Doctor Doom.
In a lawsuit filed in New York federal court, Jabbari detailed several instances of alleged physical violence from 2021 to 2023.
According to reporting fromDeadlinein April 2024:
Jabbari’s defamation case is filled with additional allegations of abuse against Majors that were originally kept out of the criminal case record by Judge Gaffey. Initially, the judge ruled the material too “inflammatory” to allow Majors to receive a fair trial. However, in no small part due to the defense itself, he later reversed portions of that sealing ruling so Jabbari could effectively respond to questioning on the stand.
It should be noted that Jabbari is not the only party to accuse Majors of abuse. In extensive reporting fromRolling Stone,two dozen sources explained how, “Majors was abusive with his partners, aggressive on sets, and a source of ‘toxicity’ at Yale,'” where he trained as an actor. Later, in a February 2024 report by theNew York Times, two additional women came forward to allege receiving emotional abuse from the actor, with it also turning physical for one of them.In October of this year, Majors' supposed-Oscar-contender film,Magazine Dreamswas acquired by a company which plans to release the film in 2025 after it was shelved in 2023 due to the controversy surrounding Majors. And only a few days ago, Majors announced his engagement to actress Meagan Good. He was alsocast in an upcoming science fiction filmand received the Perseverance Award at the fourth annual Hollywood Unlocked Impact Awards — both of which happened in June. One might say that the overall impact of these controversies and convictions on Majors' life does at least seem quite minimal. Only time will tell how the allegations and arrest impact the lives of all parties involved.
