Mia Goth files for divorce from Shia LaBeouf nearly 10 years after the actors married

LOS ANGELES — Mia Goth has filed for divorce from Shia LaBeouf, almost a decade after the actors married.

The divorce petition, filed Tuesday in Los Angeles County Superior Court, says Goth, 32, and LaBeouf, 40, have been separated since July 2025.

Goth and LaBeouf met while working on “Nymphomaniac: Vol. II” in 2012 and began a relationship soon afterward. They married in 2016, announced they were separating and divorcing in 2018, then reunited in 2020 while remaining legally married. The couple welcomed a daughter in 2022.

Goth is seeking primary legal and physical custody of their 4-year-old daughter, with visitation for LaBeouf. She has also asked the court to deny spousal support to both parties. It was the first marriage for each actor.

The petition lists irreconcilable differences, the standard reason cited in many U.S. divorce cases, as the cause of the separation.

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

Goth, who was born Mia Gypsy Mello da Silva Goth in London, most recently appeared as Melantho, an unfaithful servant, in this summer’s “The Odyssey.” She also played a dual role in last year’s “Frankenstein” and previously starred in the horror trilogy “X,” “Pearl” and “MaXXXine.”

LaBeouf began his career as a child star on the Disney Channel series “Even Stevens” and in the 2003 film “Holes.” He later appeared in “Indiana Jones and the Crystal Skull” and the first three “Transformers” movies directed by Michael Bay.

Goth’s divorce filing came one day after LaBeouf settled, for the second time, a lawsuit brought by singer, songwriter and actor FKA Twigs, whom he dated while separated from Goth.

FKA Twigs, whose legal name is Tahliah Barnett, alleged in a 2020 lawsuit that LaBeouf emotionally and physically abused her during their relationship. The two began dating after she took a supporting role in “Honey Boy,” the semi-autobiographical film LaBeouf wrote and starred in.

The lawsuit was settled and dismissed last year. Barnett sued LaBeouf again in March, arguing that nondisclosure provisions in the settlement unlawfully prevented her from speaking under California law.

On Monday, she asked the court to dismiss the second lawsuit, saying in court documents that LaBeouf had agreed to invalidate the nondisclosure provisions.

In June, LaBeouf was sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to punching three people outside a New Orleans bar during Mardi Gras.
