Drake has
settled his lawsuit against Layla Lace (real name Laquana Morris), a
woman who allegedly falsely claimed that she was raped and impregnated
by the rapper.This was revealed by Drake’s attorney Larry Stein in a
statement made to TMZ. “The filing made by Drake against Layla Lace has
been resolved, with Layla avoiding going to trial by agreeing to a
stipulated judgment which prohibits her from repeating past statements
she made against Drake,” “Drake and his team are satisfied with this
outcome and while Drake appreciates the support he has received, he asks
that his fans and the media allow both parties to move on with their
lives.” In September, Drake filed his lawsuit against Morris for civil
extortion, fraud, emotional distress, abuse of process and defamation.
In the suit, the rapper admits to having consensual sex with Morris
while at a Manchester, England hotel in February 2017. According to the
suit, soon after, Morris claimed she booked a flight to see him, but the
suit alleged Morris became angry after she didn’t get a response and
she then canceled the flight and Drake ceased communications with
her. Then in April 2017, Morris took to Instagram and stated she was
pregnant, claiming that Drake was the father. Soon after, she appeared
on a radio show to discuss the claim. “I know who I sleep with
unprotected, period,” she told SiriusXM’s Shade 45. “So it’s 100 percent
sure. He knows it.” The suit also alleged that Morris also claimed that
Drake raped her and that even after Manchester police cleared him of
any allegations of sexual assault, Morris demanded money from the
rapper.According to documents filed on Friday and obtained by TMZ, the
rapper informed the court that he and Morris have resolved their legal
issues. As part of the settlement per TMZ, Morris has agreed to abstain
from republishing her Instagram post from April 2017 where she first
made the pregnancy claim and that she will not make “statements alleging
or insinuating [Drake] assaulted her,” got her pregnant and abandoned
her, or any other denigrating comments about Drake.Drake wins lawsuit against woman claiming he raped and impregnated her
