Shia LaBeouf's Wife Pleads With Actor To Go To Rehab To 'Manage' His Drinking After Arrest Incident

Mia Goth has reportedly issued an urgent plea to her estranged husband, Shia LaBeouf, urging him to go to rehab following his recent.

The actor left L.A. for New Orleans to seemingly "refocus," but was recently arrested after getting into an alleged drunken brawl with a bar employee.

To make matters worse, one of Shia LaBeouf's victims alleged he hurled gay slurs at him during the bar attack while yelling that he is a "Catholic."

LaBeouf's estranged wife Mia Goth is seemingly worried about him and has asked him to seek professional help following his recent run-in with the law.

According to TMZ, sources claim the actress wants him to go to rehab to "manage" his drinking issues, as his recent arrest seemed to have blown the lid off his personal struggles that have been going on for years.

The couple, who first met on the set of "Nymphomaniac" in 2012, dated on and off until 2016, when they tied the knot.

However, their relationship reportedly suffered a strain in 2018,  leading to a temporary split. They, however, quietly reunited two years later and welcomed their daughter Isabel in 2022.

Reports claim the pair have been estranged for close to a year now, but the "MaXXXine" actress still looks out for him and wants him to be present in their daughter's life.

They have seemingly maintained a cordial relationship with each other despite their estrangement, with sources claiming Goth was "concerned" for the father of her child when his recent run-in with the law became public.

Before their separation, police received a 911 call from Goth and LaBeouf's L.A. home for what was alleged to be a stalking incident and disturbance of the peace.

According to TMZ, Pasadena Police Department documents reveal that law enforcement came to their home on November 2, 2024, after receiving an emergency call at around 11:12 pm local time.

According to the news outlet, an "uncooperative female" caller was trying to get her husband to leave and could be heard saying, "just go."

However, she later called back stating that he refused to and was still in the building, with the documents describing how the male could be heard in the background cursing.

Cops arrived at the location 6 minutes after receiving the call and reportedly left at about 11:41 pm. The report didn't list the names of the individuals, and a statement wasn't taken because it "didn't escalate to that level."

The issue was later "cleared" because it was a verbal altercation.

LaBeouf's marital troubles and alleged drinking issues came under the spotlight after his altercation with a bar employee that saw the actor get beaten up.

The New Orleans Police Department took him into custody just after midnight on Tuesday, February 17, 2026, after officers were called to a business on Royal Street following claims of "a simple battery where two victims (two adult males) reported being assaulted."

The statement claimed LaBeouf was "causing a disturbance and becoming increasingly aggressive" at the establishment, which led to his removal from the building.

He allegedly struck a victim with "closed fists" multiple times and punched a second person in the nose, as several people tried to calm him down.

As reported by The Blast, one of the victims told law enforcement that the 39-year-old actor hurled gay slurs at him during the alleged attack. An incident report claimed he used the F-word multiple times and, at one point, said, "These f--gots put me in jail. I'm a Catholic."

He was later released and charged with two counts of simple battery.

LaBeouf reportedly relocated from L.A. to The Big Easy, wanting a new lease of life following his estrangement from Goth.

According to TMZ, he paid just over a million dollars for a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath Uptown cottage that's just about 20 minutes from the French Quarter, and has been telling people he came there to "reset and refocus."

However, it appears the actor hasn't necessarily been living a low-key life as employees of various drinking establishments claim he had been letting loose in the buildup to his arrest on Tuesday, per The Hollywood Reporter.

A doorman at Ms. Mae, Robert Skuse, described their encounter on Sunday, saying the actor was without a shirt or cash, and was in an "inebriated" state, and was "somewhat belligerent."

"He did the 'Do you know who I am?' bit," Skuse said, adding that many actually did recognize the actor and asked him for a group photo, to which he complied.

More individuals who spoke about LaBeouf's conduct gave varying accounts, with some saying he was friendly, while others accused him of causing terror wherever he went.

"He was so nice on Thursday," a bartender who waited on him that night said, with THR reporting that he put on his shirt when he was told he had to.

Bartender Kyle Catarouch, who worked that early evening, said LaBeouf asked her "three times if he could use his credit card," even though the bar has at least 50 "cash only" signs.

LaBeouf was reportedly asked to leave that Sunday after wanting to act like "a celebrity bartender," with a bartender who waited on him last Thursday telling the news outlet, "He is terrorizing the city!"
