• Kesha and Dr. Luke reach settlement in defamation lawsuit after 9 years
• Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson suing ex-girlfriend for defamation after she accused him of rape and abuse
• Allegations of defamation stem from custody battle and previous legal issues between the couple
Here is what happened:
In a recent filing, Curtis “50 Cent” Jackson has taken legal action against his ex-girlfriend Daphne Joy Narvaez for defamation. The lawsuit comes in response to Narvaez’s public accusations of rape and physical abuse during their 2011 relationship. Allegedly, these claims were made by Narvaez as retaliation for Jackson’s attempt to gain sole custody of their 11-year-old son Sire after learning about her involvement with another lawsuit. Despite efforts by Jackson and his legal team to address and rectify the situation, Narvaez persisted in making defamatory statements about him on social media platforms.
The defamation lawsuit highlights the contentious history between Jackson and Narvaez, shedding light on the challenges they have faced in co-parenting their son. The filing specifically mentions the significant emotional and reputational harm caused by Narvaez’s false allegations of rape and abuse. Seeking over $1 million in damages, Jackson aims to hold Narvaez accountable for the detrimental impact of her actions on his personal and professional life.
This legal dispute is not the first time the former couple has been embroiled in legal battles. Following their breakup in 2013, Narvaez previously accused Jackson of domestic violence, leading to a plea deal in which Jackson pleaded no contest to vandalism charges. The tumultuous history between Jackson and Narvaez underscores the complex and challenging dynamics of their past relationship, as they navigate the aftermath of their public disputes in the courtroom.
