Country star Zac Brown sues estranged wife Kelly Yazdi over Instagram post
Zac Brown filed a lawsuit against his estranged wife Friday demanding she take down an Instagram post, arguing what she put online has tarnished his public image.
Grammy-winning country singer Zac Brown filed a lawsuit against his estranged wife Friday demanding she take down an Instagram post, arguing what she put online has tarnished his public image.
Brown alleges a post on Kelly Yazdi’s Instagram account broke a confidentiality agreement she had signed, according to court documents. The singer is seeking an emergency temporary restraining order that would compel her to remove the post.
Brown is also asking the court to stop Yazdi from “making any defamatory, false, untrue, or otherwise damaging statements” about him, his family and his bandmates.
The lawsuit, filed in Georgia, does not specify the Instagram post in question. Yazdi, identified in the documents as Brown’s wife and a former employee of his company, did not immediately reply to a request for comment on the lawsuit.
In a statement to NBC News, Brown said, “I took the steps necessary to enforce an agreement between us to maintain personal and business affairs in confidence and to protect my family from online harassment and speculation.”
