Trial Evidence Exposes Disturbing Texts Sent by Jonathan Majors to Ex Grace Jabbari
Shocking trial evidence unveils Jonathan Majors' disturbing text messages to ex-girlfriend Grace Jabbari, shedding light on a troubling assault case
During his ongoing assault trial, new evidence has revealed that Jonathan Majors threatened suicide in a text exchange with his then-girlfriend Grace Jabbari in September 2022.
The Manhattan District Attorney’s office has released several text messages and an audio recording from September 2022, which were shown in court last week. In one of the text messages, the 34-year-old Majors expressed thoughts of suicide, writing: "I will probably [k]ill myself. It’s not really contemplating any more …I’m a monster. A horrible man. Not capable of love. I am killing myself soon. I’ve already put things in motion."
Majors threatened self-harm after claiming that Jabbari, 30, had not shown him love that morning.
"I showed you love last night and this morning before I got out of bed. When you got up, you didn't show me any love at all. I didn't feel it at all. You could have just given me a hug or walked close to me or asked if you could give me a hug, not the other way around. It goes both ways," Majors wrote.
Jabbari begged Majors not to hurt himself, saying, "Jonathan, you can't do this. I'm going to have to call someone." She also apologized for not hugging him that morning and reminded him of his 9-year-old daughter, Ella.
Last month, Majors' trial finally began after multiple delays. He was taken into custody in March for allegedly assaulting a woman identified as Jabbari. Shortly after, he was brought before the court and charged with assault and harassment. Despite denying the allegations at the time, Majors has since pleaded not guilty to the charges. Additionally, in a recent court message, Majors appeared to discourage Jabbari from seeking medical attention after she suffered a head injury.
Majors expressed concern: "I'm worried that if you go to the hospital, they might start asking questions. And if you don't fully protect us, it could lead to an investigation, even if you lie and they become suspicious."
Jabbari replied: "If I do go, I'll just tell the doctor I bumped my head. I'll wait one more day, but I really need stronger painkillers because I can't sleep. That's it. I don't want to tell them what really happened, it's obvious I want to be with you."

Adding to the text messages, an audio clip was released featuring an argument between Majors and Jabbari. In the recording, Majors stated that Jabbari "has to be of a certain mindset" to be his partner, much like Coretta Scott King was for Martin Luther King Jr. and Michelle Obama is for former president Barack Obama.
"I'm a great man. A great man. I am doing great things, not just for me, but for my culture and the world," Majors continued. "That is actually the position I'm in. That's real. I'm not being a d—k about it. I didn't ask for it. I've worked, and that's the situation. The woman that supports me... needs to be a great woman and make sacrifices the way that man is making for her and for them ultimately."
