This is troubling news for fans of Disney darling Skai Jackson.
The 22-year-old actress was arrested for alleged domestic battery following an altercation with her boyfriend, according to a report published by TMZ.
The fight reportedly occurred inside Universal Studios in Los Angeles. Jackson was seen allegedly pushing her partner more than once before authorities were called to the CityWalk area of the theme park as the couple continued to argue.
As per the Aug. 13 report from TMZ, the couple were detained by park security until police arrived, at which point the Dancing with the Stars alum was arrested for misdemeanor domestic battery.

According to multiple sources, both Jackson and her boyfriend (who has yet to be identified) denied fighting at all. Instead, the couple contended that they were happy, engaged, and expecting a baby together.
Jackson was held for a few hours and then released after receiving a citation.
MadameNoire has reached out to Jackson’s reps for comment.
The troubling incident is currently under investigation by the LA County District Attorney’s Office.
Jackson is best known for her four-season role as Zuri Ross on the Disney sitcom Jessie from 2011 to 2015. She later reprised the role from 2015 to 2018 on the spinoff Bunk’d.
Who is Jackson’s boyfriend?
Despite the identity of Jackson’s possible baby daddy remaining a mystery, back in March, Jackson fans quickly came up with their own theories after she shared a Snapchat reel titled “Showing My New BF” with her new beau.
In the image, Jackson’s alleged secret lover sported a one-of-a-kind tattoo on his right hand that social media sleuths matched to a user under the name @ntwrkboyz.
Fans later took to X, the platform formerly known as Twitter, to voice their dismay, imploring the Reach for the Skai: How to Inspire, Empower, and Clapback author to reach higher and calling her potential suitor a “thug.”
