*Jonathan Majors claims his girlfriend, actress Meagan Good, “held me down” like Coretta Scott King amid his domestic violence trial last month.
Majors was found guilty of assault and harassment against his ex, Grace Jabbari, and he’s speaking out for the first time about the high-profile trial in a new interview with GMA.
“She’s an angel,” he said of Good, whom he began dating last May after his arrest for allegedly assaulting Jabbari in March. Majors said Good has since “held me down like a Coretta [Scott King].”
“I’m so blessed to have her. The relationship is still fresh. I think I found her,” he added.
We reported earlier that Majors made similar remarks to Jabbari in a recorded audio that was released amid the ex-couple’s domestic violence trial in December.

“How dare you come home drunk and disturb the peace of our house when we have a plan,” the “Creed III” star is heard telling Jabbari in a conversation that reportedly took place months before Majors allegedly assaulted her in the backseat of a car in New York City.
“I would like to get to the point where your friends know what job I’m on and go, ‘I think Grace is gonna be out of commission,'” he continued.
“Do you understand that?” Majors asked. “‘Cause that team, that unit, right? Grace has to be in a certain mindset.”
He continued, “Coretta Scott King. You know who that is? That’s Martin Luther King’s wife. Michelle Obama, Barack Obama’s wife.”
Majors is facing up to a year behind bars. His sentencing is scheduled for February 6.
