The S8x Appeal actress was reportedly involved in a fight with her boyfriend last week. The Jessie star, 22, was arrested for ‘misdemeanor domestic battery’ after police officers were called to Universal CityWalk in Los Angeles.
Skai is alleged to have pushed her partner before security detained the couple. However, despite the alleged altercation, the actress reportedly told police the pair were happily engaged and expecting their first together, reports TMZ.
After police reviewed CCTV footage, which reportedly showed the actress pushing her boyfriend, whose identity is unknown, Skai was arrested for misdemeanour domestic battery, cited, and released a few hours later.
The outlet added that the case will be reviewed by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office to decide if charges are warranted.
Little is known about the Sheroes star’s relationship with her boyfriend and there are no photos of him on social media.
It’s not Skai’s first brush with the law, after the actress previously filed a restraining order against rapper, Bhad Bhabie, aka Danielle Bregoli, after threats against her life in 2020.
Skai, whose new film The Man in the White Van is out in October, filed the restraining order against the then 16-year-old Danielle in Los Angeles stating at the time she was afraid to leave her home after the rapper had made direct threats towards her.
The actress added that she hadn’t been sleeping since the threats were made against her and felt Danielle was “mentally unstable”.
In the filing, TMZ reported that Skai also included past text messages from the rapper, in which Bregoli allegedly said she wanted to fight the Disney star, who had “better hide”.
Skai is best known for playing Zuri Ross in the Disney Channel sitcom Jessie from 2011 to 2015 and its spin-off series Bunk’d from 2015 to 2018.
She appeared on Time’s list of the Most Influential Teens in 2016 and was nominated for Best Influencer at the Shorty Awards in 2017.
