Skai Jackson, widely recognized for her roles in Disney Channel’s “Jessie” and “Bunk’d,” was arrested last week for domestic battery following a public altercation with her boyfriend at Universal CityWalk in Los Angeles.
Security personnel at the popular entertainment complex witnessed the 21-year-old actress repeatedly pushing her boyfriend during a heated argument. The incident escalated quickly, prompting security to detain the couple until law enforcement arrived.
Upon questioning, both Jackson and her boyfriend denied that any physical altercation had occurred, with Jackson stating they were happily engaged and expecting a child together. However, deputies reviewed video footage that captured Jackson pushing her boyfriend, leading to her arrest for misdemeanor domestic battery. She was cited and released later the same day.
The Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office is currently reviewing the case to determine whether further charges will be filed.
Details about Jackson’s boyfriend remain scarce, as the actress has kept their relationship largely out of the public eye. The arrest has sparked a wave of reactions online, with some expressing concern for Jackson’s well-being, while others focus on the legal and personal implications of the incident.
This incident adds to the growing list of former child stars facing legal challenges as they navigate the pressures of life in the spotlight. As the case develops, the public and fans alike await further updates and any statements from Jackson or her representatives.
