Welp, Jonathan Majors has officially broken his silence on that leaked audio where he allegedly confessed to physically assaulting his ex, Grace Jabbari. And by “broken his silence,” we mean he gave a cryptic response that sounds like he was trying to solve a riddle inside a fortune cookie.
The 35-year-old actor sat down for an interview and, instead of directly addressing the situation, gave us this little nugget of wisdom:
โI was so grateful that I had done my work, and am continuing to do my work. I canโt speak to it, but obviously, because youโre talking about it, there are vibrations, reverberations, same as everything before.โ
Sirโฆ what? Did we just unlock a side quest in Inception? Because this answer has layers.
But waitโthereโs more! Jonathan reassured everyone that, despite the controversy, his life is going just fine:
โIโm living life. Iโm surrounded by loved ones and family.โ
Which is a poetic way of saying, โNext question.โ
About That Audioโฆ
So, what exactly is in this leaked audio? Oh, just Jonathan seemingly admitting to what Grace accused him of. In the clip, Jonathan reportedly says:
โIโm ashamed Iโve everโฆIโve never [been] aggressive with a woman before. Iโve never aggressed a woman โ I aggressed you.โ
Now, letโs pause. Because “I aggressed you” is NOT a phrase that belongs in anyoneโs vocabulary. That sounds like something a medieval knight would say before jousting.
To make things worse, Grace reportedly responds:
โYou strangled me and pushed me against the car.โ
And Jonathan? Well, he doesnโt deny it. Instead, he doubles down:
โYes, all those things are under โaggressed,โ yeah.โ
Sir. SIR. This is not the time to be out here defining verbs like you’re on Sesame Street.
A Timeline of Trouble
Jonathan was first arrested back in March 2023 following the alleged domestic dispute with Grace. By December 2023, a jury found him guilty of third-degree assault and harassment.
And just when you thought the drama couldnโt get any messierโSURPRISE!โJonathan got married to actress Meagan Good in a private ceremony, literally right before this audio hit the internet. Talk about timing.
So, whatโs next for Jonathan Majors? Who knows. But if his public statements continue sounding like rejected haikus, weโre in for a wild ride.
