Update 11/10/2023 2:37pm:

Keke Palmer was granted a request for a temporary restraining order against her ex-boyfriend, Darius Jackson. She was also granted temporary sole custody of their son, Leo.

Keke has accused Darius of "many instances of physical violence" that took place throughout her two-year romance with Jackson. Keke revealed that she broke up with Darius in October due to “the physical and emotional abuse inflicted” by him. 

The actress then accused Darius of "trespassing" into her home on November 5, when Keke claims Darius threatened her before lunging and striking her. Still images of the altercation were included in the court filing, which appears to line up with Keke's claims.
