Actor Mia Goth filed for divorce from actor Shia LaBeouf on Tuesday, October 6, 2026, in Los Angeles County Superior Court. The petition states that the couple, who married in 2016, has been separated since July 2025.
Goth and LaBeouf met in 2012 while filming the movie "Nymphomaniac: Vol. II." They previously announced plans to divorce in 2018 but remained legally married and reunited in 2020. The couple has one child, a four-year-old born in 2022.
In the filing, Goth cited irreconcilable differences as the reason for the dissolution of the marriage. The 32-year-old actor is seeking primary legal and physical custody of their child, requesting visitation rights for the 40-year-old LaBeouf. Goth also requested that the court deny spousal support to either party.
The filing occurred one day after LaBeouf settled a lawsuit with his former partner, British singer FKA Twigs. The singer had accused LaBeouf of physical and emotional abuse during their relationship, which took place during a prior separation between Goth and LaBeouf. Representatives for neither actor immediately responded to requests for comment following the Tuesday filing.
The scale of the proceeding involves the legal rights of three family members and the adjudication of a child custody arrangement that will remain in effect until the child reaches adulthood. While the specific financial valuation of their combined assets was not reported, the petition seeks to prevent future financial transfers between the parties. The timing of the filing follows a separate legal settlement involving LaBeouf and a former partner, though the sources did not report a direct legal connection between the two cases.
The next steps in the case involve the court reviewing Goth's requests for custody and spousal support. LaBeouf will have the opportunity to respond to the petition in Los Angeles County Superior Court. A judge will eventually rule on the final terms of the divorce, including the specific visitation schedule for the child and the finality of the spousal support waiver. Future hearing dates were not reported in the initial filing documents.
