FKA Twigs is reportedly seeking $10million (£7.9million) in damages from ex Shia Labeouf and has accused him of improperly seeking her private records.The singer-songwriter (real name Tahliah Barnett) originally brought the abuse lawsuit against the actor in 2020, where she accused LaBeouf of “relentless abuse”.
