FKA Twigs released from NDA after settlement dispute with Shia LaBeouf

FKA Twigs is no longer bound by a non-disclosure agreement tied to her settlement with Shia LaBeouf. LaBeouf agreed to terminate and void the agreement, which he had claimed she breached. The outcome was reported on 6 October 2026, Rolling Stone said.

Born Tahliah Barnett, the singer told the Superior Court of Los Angeles she will withdraw her March complaint against LaBeouf. That complaint had asked the court to end the non-disclosure agreement, a contract that bars a person from discussing specified matters. The filing closes the latest chapter of a case that began six years ago.

Twigs first filed suit in Los Angeles in 2020. She accused LaBeouf of sexual battery, assault and mental abuse during their relationship in 2018 and 2019. The pair finalised a settlement in July 2025.

The new dispute started after that settlement. LaBeouf began an arbitration, a private dispute process held outside court, on 19 December 2025. He sought money over statements she made to The Hollywood Reporter. That arbitration was later dismissed.

On 4 February, her lawyers asked for LaBeouf's action to be dismissed on the grounds that the non-disclosure terms were illegal, Page Six reported. She then filed her own complaint in March seeking to have the agreement set aside.

Her case rested in part on California's Stand Together Against Non-Disclosure Act. The law forbids agreements that try to stop victims of sexual abuse from speaking about facts related to their suffering. Her attorney, Mathew Rosengart, said the result completely frees her to discuss her experience and to advocate for other women.
