“Below Deck Sailing Yacht” star Gary King was sued by a makeup artist for alleged sexual battery and assault.

According to court documents obtained by Page Six Tuesday, beautician Samantha Suarez filed a lawsuit against the reality star and Bravo, alleging King attempted to coerce her into sleeping with him in July 2022 while filming Season 4 of the TV series.

Per the filing, King was allegedly drunk when he asked Suarez to bring snacks to his hotel room. When she attempted to leave, he allegedly grabbed her by the arms and restrained her.

Suarez claimed the Bravo star closed the door and leaned on it with his full weight to prevent her from fleeing.

She recalled fearing that she would be raped until another member of the crew allegedly called out for her.

Suarez claimed that once King, 32, realized that another person could hear them, he allowed her to leave.

According to the filing, Suarez “immediately” reported the incident to the production company, which opened an investigation.

King allegedly admitted to the behavior when confronted by producers. However, he was not fired and allegedly only received a warning.

But Suarez’s then-boyfriend, Grey Duddleston — who worked as a camera operator — claimed he witnessed King untie the bikini tops of two female cast members without consent afterward.

Duddleston reported the alleged incidents via the crew’s walkie-talkie system, but production allegedly opened an investigation into him for “inappropriate use” of the equipment.

Bravo allegedly investigated the claims before firing Suarez and Duddleston and putting them on the “do not hire” list.

Suarez is suing the network for hostile work environment, retaliation and wrongful termination.

Reps for Bravo weren’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.

King, meanwhile, returned for Season 5 of the Bravo show, which premiered in October 2024 and concluded in January 2025.

In August 2023, Suarez initially spoke out about the allegations in an interview with Rolling Stone.

At the time, several other crew members came forward alleging King made the female staff uncomfortable.

“He’s next-level scary with women,” one person claimed.

King, however, denied the allegations, insisting Suarez was “lying” in response to a fan’s comment on Instagram.

“I have never sexually harassed someone in my life, and I will never,” he wrote.

Just a few days before he took the stage at Coachella, Post Malone was served custody papers by his ex-fiancée.

According to court documents obtained by PEOPLE, the “Circles” singer, 29, was served custody papers after his ex-fiancée, Hee Sung “Jamie” Park, hired a process server to track down Malone, born Austin Post.

The musician, who took the stage at Coachella Weekend Two on Sunday, April 20, was served on Friday, April 18 at 1:29 p.m. in a Los Angeles parking garage.

A rep for Malone did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

On Wednesday, April 16, legal documents filed in Los Angeles Superior Court and obtained by PEOPLE revealed Malone’s ex-fiancée’s name for the first time as Park filed for custody of the couple’s 2½-year-old daughter.

In the filing, Park requested primary physical custody of her and the rapper’s daughter, who was referred to only by her initials — DDP.

According to the court document, Park is seeking joint legal custody and is willing to give Malone visitation rights.

In May 2022, Malone welcomed a daughter with his former fiancée, just weeks after he told PEOPLE they were expecting.

While he didn’t share an official birth announcement for his daughter, Malone revealed the news of his baby’s arrival on Howard Stern in June 2022.

Then in September 2023, Malone discussed his decision to maintain privacy when it came to his daughter and his former fiancée.

“I feel like a lot of people feel entitled to know every single detail of everyone’s life and it’s why I don’t want to post any pictures of my baby, because I want her to be able to make that decision whenever she wants to and is ready,” he told CR Fashion Book for the Muses issue.

However, in 2025, Malone and his ex appeared to have broken up when he was spotted out with a different woman in March.

At the time, TMZ shared a TikTok video captured by a fan who showed him at a bar sitting next to a woman who had been identified as Christy Lee. Malone and Lee have since been spotted in various locales in Rome and Paris.
