Mia Goth, the British actress known for her roles in the horror trilogy X, Pearl, and MaXXXine, officially filed for divorce from Shia LaBeouf on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The petition cites “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for the split and lists their date of separation as July 28, 2025.

In her filing, Goth, 32, requested primary legal and physical custody of the couple’s 4-year-old daughter, Isabel, who was born in March 2022. She also asked the court to deny spousal support to either party and for each party to cover their own attorney fees.

Representatives for both Goth and LaBeouf, 40, did not immediately respond to requests for comment.

A Turbulent Decade

The couple’s relationship has been defined by its on-and-off nature since they first met on the set of Lars von Trier’s Nymphomaniac: Vol. II in 2012. They married in 2016 in a Las Vegas ceremony, though officials later confirmed it was not legally binding.

In 2018, the couple announced they were divorcing, with a representative stating the separation was “amicable.” During this period, LaBeouf dated singer FKA Twigs, who later sued him for sexual battery, assault, and emotional distress. That lawsuit was settled in 2025, but FKA Twigs filed a second suit in March 2026 over nondisclosure provisions, which was dismissed on Monday after LaBeouf agreed to void those provisions.

Goth and LaBeouf reconciled in 2020, and their daughter Isabel was born in 2022. However, reports of strain emerged throughout late 2024 and early 2025, including a police visit to their Los Angeles home in November 2024 following a verbal altercation.

LaBeouf’s Public Remarks

In a February 2026 interview on Channel 5 With Andrew Callaghan, LaBeouf spoke openly about the end of the marriage, saying there was “nothing” to repair between them. “We’re trying to figure out co-parenting and we’re good,” he said. “She’s a good woman, bro.”

LaBeouf also admitted to having “violated trust in a big, big way” early in their relationship. “We were deeply unhappy,” he said. “I made a lot of mistakes early on before we tried to have a baby.”

He described their decision to separate as rooted in their desire not to be unhappy around their child: “It’s not good to be unhappy around kids, but yet it’s important to be proximate.”

Legal Troubles and Aftermath

Following the separation, LaBeouf relocated from Los Angeles to New Orleans. In February 2026, he was arrested during Mardi Gras after an altercation at a bar, where he allegedly punched three people. In June 2026, he pleaded guilty to misdemeanor battery charges and was sentenced to two years of probation, alcohol abuse rehabilitation, sensitivity training, and anger management classes.

Police had been called to the couple’s Los Angeles home multiple times before LaBeouf’s move, according to reports. Sources indicated Goth wanted him to seek treatment for his drinking.

What’s Next

Goth, whose recent credits include Frankenstein and The Odyssey, is set to appear in Star Wars: Starfighter. She is also facing a separate legal matter: a battery lawsuit filed in 2024 by an actor who alleges she assaulted him on the set of MaXXXine. That case has a jury trial scheduled for April 2028.

LaBeouf, who rose to fame as a child star on Disney Channel’s Even Stevens and later starred in the Transformers franchise, most recently appeared in the documentary Slauson Rec. He has reportedly moved on romantically to a new relationship.

The divorce filing marks the end of one of Hollywood’s most tumultuous and closely watched relationships, a decade-long saga marked by reconciliations, legal battles, and public struggles.
