Tiffany Haddish

Tiffany Haddish has reportedly reached a settlement with the two alleged victims who sued her for sexual assault. According to Radar Online, Haddish worked out an agreement privately.

A lawsuit filed against Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears states the two comedians groomed a 14-year-old girl and a 7-year-old boy. TMZ states that Haddish and Spears are accused of coercing the two minors into explicit skits.

The siblings, identifying as Jane and John Doe, state they have endured lifelong trauma. The boy added that he was molested by both defends.

In the lawsuit, Jane Doe stated Haddish taught her how to mimic fellatio for a skit that would be filmed for “Funny or Die.” Haddish allegedly brought John Doe to Spears and molested him while filming a video titled “Through a Pedophiles Eyes.”

Haddish moved the case from state to federal court and temporarily sealed the complaint due to images of minor John undressed. The case remained sealed throughout due to John still being a minor.

A dollar amount was not disclosed, but as part of the deal Haddish is to publicly apologize for her role in the skits and to recant that the suit was a shakedown.

Tiffany Haddish is currently the center of controversy after a sketch called “Through A Pedophiles Eyes,” filmed with Aries Spears from earlier in her career, surfaced alongside molestation and grooming accusations. In an exclusive conversation with Hollywood Unlocked, Haddish revealed she is glad the clip came to light because she is tired of being extorted.

Jane Doe, who is now 22 years old, and John Doe, who was born in 2007, filed a civil action in Los Angeles Superior Court. The lawsuit claims that Aries Spears and Tiffany Haddish pressured and groomed the plaintiffs into “filming sexually graphic child pornography skits” when they were both adolescents.

In an update, Haddish stated she is “relieved” that the video has come forward as she was over the threats associated. “I wanted to take responsibility and I was tired of being extorted,” she stated.

The actress and comedian expressed her “great regret” for agreeing to participate in the comedy sketch with comedian Aries Spears six years ago in an Instagram post on Monday. The Girls Trip actress said that she wanted to clarify the situation but was unable to do so because of the current legal dispute.

“I know people have a bunch of questions. I get it. I’m right there with you,” Haddish says in her statement. “Unfortunately, because there is an ongoing legal case, there’s very little that I can say right now.”

Haddish continues, “But, clearly, while the sketch was intended to be comedic, it wasn’t funny at all — and I deeply regret having agreed to act in it. I really look forward to being able to share a lot more about this situation as soon as I can.”

In response, Haddish’s attorney, Andrew Brettler, stated the lawsuit was an extortion attempt. He said, “Plaintiff’s mother, Trizah Morris, has been trying to assert these bogus claims against Ms. Haddish for several years.”

“Every attorney who has initially taken on her case — and there were several — ultimately dropped the matter once it became clear that the claims were meritless and Ms. Haddish would not be shaken down. Now, Ms. Morris has her adult daughter representing herself in this lawsuit. The two of them will together face the consequences of pursuing this frivolous action.”

Jane Doe states she is fearful to date out of fear of being “led down a path of false trust like the path that Haddish led her down.” In addition, both siblings have expressed social disorders. Previously, the mother attempted to secure a $15,000 settlement.

In a separate statement, “Funny or Die” has denied all involvement in the incident.

“Funny Or Die found this video absolutely disgusting and would never produce such content. We were not involved with the conceptualization, development, funding, or production of this video. It was uploaded to the site as user-generated content and was removed in 2018 immediately after becoming aware of its existence.”
