Tiffany Haddish & Aries Spears’ Alleged Victims Ready To Talk Settlement For Sexual Assault Lawsuit & Are Demanding A Public Apology For Questionable Skit 

Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears seemingly have a settlement coming their way.

According to RadarOnline, the siblings who were allegedly groomed and sexually assaulted by comedians Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears are ready to talk about their settlement pertaining to their sexual assault lawsuit. John and Jane, the names the siblings used to file their lawsuit, allege they have attempted to contact Tiffany Haddish and Aries Spears but they have not heard from them. The siblings claim the comedians “have instead chosen to reach out to my mother to get her to force my brother and me to settle.” Jane claimed to have contacted Clifton Albright, Haddish’s attorney, that  “laid out basic terms of the parties to engage in mediation/settlement talks.”

Jane stated:

“My brother and I are amenable to Plaintiff Haddish’s desire to engage in mediation/settlement talks.”

According to Jane, the mediation would have to be paid for by Haddish and “must take place in Las Vegas within the next two weeks.” Jane said if they agreed to a settlement she would consider releasing a joint statement with Haddish where  “we state that the parties have agreed to a private settlement, and Haddish must publicly apologize for her role in the skits.” In the future, she wants Haddish to disregard her shakedown statement directed “towards our mother, and state she never intended to harm my brother, mother and me.” 

As previously reported, Haddish and Spears are being sued for allegedly coercing a 14-year-old girl and her seven-year-old brother to perform rated R skits. The siblings claim they are traumatized for life and the brother said he was molested by both defendants. The older sister claimed Haddish taught her how to mimic fellatio for the skit. The lawsuit stated that Spears molested her younger brother during the filming of  a “Funny or Die” video titled “Through A Pedophiles Eyes.” Spears responded to the allegations, calling the lawsuit an “extortion case”. He said:

“Listen, this is an extortion case. This is a shakedown. And I didn’t need my lawyer to tell me this to say this, but you know I’m going to act on her words… We won’t be shaken down. And believe me it’s bothering me not to talk about the skit ‘cause Andy and I have been talking about it and there’s some very valid things I feel like I have to say or want to say, but just can’t at this time.”

The 47-year-old continued:

“I’m no coward. I’m not running from anything and I’m not guilty of anything. It’s the reason why I won’t turn my mentions off on my Instagram. It’s the reason why I’m not deleting any of my old posts.”

The New Jersey native added:

“It’s paining me to do so cause I’m a fighter not a runner. My character’s being assassinated. Again, I want to address the skit especially, but I just can’t.”

On Monday (Sept. 5) Haddish took to social media to speak out against the serious allegations made against her. The 42-year-old said:

“I know people have a bunch of questions. I get it. I’m right there with you. Unfortunately, because there is an ongoing legal case, there’s very little that I can say right now. But, clearly, while this sketch was intended to be comedic, it wasn’t funny at all – and I deeply regret having agreed to act in it. I really look forward to being able to share a lot more about this situation as soon as I can.”
