Shia LaBeouf will no longer be represented by the talent agency CAA, months
after he was accused of sexual abuse by former partners, including English
singer-songwriter FKA twigs.
Sources revealed that the decision was made
after LaBeouf checked himself into inpatient treatment over a month ago,
though it was unclear what kind of treatment he was and has been
undergoing.
It was back in December last year that FKA Twigs, real name
Tahliah Debrett Barnett, filed a lawsuit in Los Angeles against the
“Transformers” star for “relentless abuse”, including sexual battery and
assault. The same lawsuit also named stylist Karolyn Pho as another former
partner who was allegedly abused by the actor.
The couple met on the
movie set of ‘”Honey Boy” in 2018 and dated for almost a year. The
relationship broke off in May 2019.

This is not the
first time CAA has dropped their talents over allegations of sexual abuse,
though some sources claimed that this time it was LaBeouf who decided to
leave.
Earlier, the agency decided to let go singer Marilyn Manson
following allegations made by his ex-fiancee Evan Rachel Wood that he abused
and groomed her while she was engaged to him at 19.
On
the other hand, another talent agency, WME dropped actor Armie Hammer amid the
controversy surrounding his interaction with several women.
