Before leaving for Australia for an award ceremony, Jacob Elordi got into serious trouble for reportedly attacking a reporter.
The hit actor of the HBO series Euphoria, Jacob Elordi, is currently under police investigation for reportedly assaulting Joshua Fox, a staff member of KIIS FM.
Days after the hit star of the HBO series Euphoria came on the police radar for allegedly assaulting KIIS FM staffer Joshua Fox, intricate details have emerged about the situation.
The victim recounts the event
Joshua Fox of KIIS FM, a local radio station, apparently tracked the Saltburn star down to a Sydney pub on Saturday after learning about the actor’s visit.
The young actor was contacted by the reporter. Joshua is known from the Kyle and Jackie O Breakfast Show. gave Jacob a jar and asked him if he could fill it with his bathwater.
This was supposed to be a practical joke, spoofing one of Saltburn’s most famous moments and a now-viral bathtub scene. What went wrong, according to Fox, was that the request angered Elordi.
To bolster his assertions, the radio producer also aired a recording of the actor pleading not to record. Co-hosts Jackie Henderson and Kyle Sandilands were informed by Fox that he had chosen to resign “because the joke didn’t land.”
He did, however, claim that Elordi became “right in the face” and demanded that the tape be taken off. After this, “he pushes me against the wall, and his hands are on my throat,” Mr. Fox narrated, per BBC.
As per Fox, the bathwater was supposed to be a gift for Jackie Henderson, the host of his show. In the audio clip, the radio show host can be heard saying, “Could I give you this? Jackie wants a birthday present.” “Jacob Elordi’s Bath Water. What am I supposed to do with this?” Asks confused Elordi in the clip. “You’re kidding me… Are you filming? Can you not, man, please?” he continues.
‘No Police report’
Fox said that as soon as he realized the prank wasn’t going over well, he decided to cease recording. But soon after, Elordi is said to have attempted to frighten him. Elordi stands up to confront Fox, which makes him back up against the wall. He was right in the radio host’s face, close enough to kiss.
“I’m backed against this wall, he’s right in my face and his two boys are now on either side of me. … It was kind of scary. I’m feeling quite intimated, and Jacob demands I delete the footage.”
According to reports, Fox said he has already spoken with the police and has no intention of pressing charges.
