Jonathan Majors' career rose to newfound heights in 2023. Unfortunately for the Creed III star, it also reached new lows, which he's still seeking to recover from. Shortly after the premiere of his two major film projects this year, the California native was arrested on assault charges. There's been much confusion regarding what went down between him and then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari in the back of a New York taxi cab, but a newly released 115-page filing gives insight into the troubling domestic dispute.

As Uproxx reports, Majors' arrest was on March 25. That same day, he and Jabbari were on their way from a party in Brooklyn to their home in Chelsea when a text on the 34-year-old's phone caught his partner's eye. It allegedly read, "Wish I was kissing you right now," garnering an obviously upset reaction. When Jabbari grabbed her man's phone, he responded by "grabbing the right side of Ms. Jabbari’s body and prying Ms. Jabbari’s right middle finger off the phone, causing bruising, swelling, and substantial pain." Afterward, Jonathan was allegedly "grabbing Ms. Jabbari’s arm and right hand and proceeding to twist Ms. Jabbari’s forearm, causing substantial pain to her finger and arm."

Finally, the filing says that the Ant-Man 3 star struck his partner's right ear, causing not only substantial pain for her, but also a laceration. When the cab stopped, prosecutors allege that Majors "grabbed [Jabari], picked her up, and threw her back inside." This only furthered the woman's injuries, adding a fractured finger, bruising about her body, and a bump on her head to the list.

It's no secret that Jonathan Majors found himself suddenly falling from fame after he was arrested on assault charges earlier this year. Many of his famous friends and co-stars have distanced themselves from the embattled star as he awaits his fate, but thankfully, his new lover Meagan Good has been sticking faithfully by his side.
