Jacob Elordi is reportedly being investigated by Australian law enforcement aft the actor allegedly assaulted a local radio producer over the weekend.

According to a report first published by Australia’s Daily Telegraph, Elordi was approached outsidethe Clovelly Hotel by Joshua Fox, a producer for The Kyle & Jackie O Show. Fox recorded himself asking the actor to send some bathwater—a reference to a scene from Saltburn—to a member of the radio show’s staff. In audio from the incident shared on Sunday’s episode of the radio show, Elordi is heard asking Fox to stop recording. “Are you kidding? Are you filming? Can you not, man, please?” he says. 

Fox, who appeared on the show Sunday, explained that Elordi then asked him to delete the footage he had recorded of their interaction. “I refused to [delete the footage] because I feel uncomfortable right now and this is the only evidence, and then Jacob kind of just flips and kind of pushes me against the wall and his hands are on my throat,” he said on the show.  Read more at Vanity Fair.
