‘Girl Meets World’ Star Uriah Shelton Accused Of Kicking Female Friend
“Girl Meets World” star Uriah Shelton is being accused of kicking his female friend in the stomach after they got into an argument.
According to People, the unnamed woman, who claimed to be Shelton’s former best friend, filed for a restraining order from the 20-year-old actor. In the documents obtained by the publication, she detailed the incident that transpired between the two of them.
“I was standing in the way of his truck door and he kicked me in the stomach to get me out of the way,” she said. The woman, who also claimed to have had sexual relations with Shelton, also said that the Disney Channel actor told her about his firearms to scare her.
She also said that she suffered from abdominal and chest trauma, internal bruising and inflamed intestines. The judge ordered Shelton to stay 100 yards away from the unnamed complainant. The “13 Reasons Why” actor has also been ordered to attend therapy sessions. A court hearing has been scheduled for Nov. 14.
But a rep for the former child star told E! News that Shelton can never harm another person. The actor’s rep also said that he’s not available to comment on the incident.
In “Girl Meets World,” Shelton played the role of Joshua Matthews, Riley’s (Rowan Blanchard) uncle. In the Netflix series, he played the role of Pratters. While speaking with Just Jared Jr. in May, Shelton shared his biggest learning from starring in “13 Reasons Why.”
He said that his biggest learning from the series is to “realize what your actions and words do to people.” “Once you do realize the effect they have on others, don’t use them for the wrong reason. Don’t manipulate, abuse, or hurt anyone with them. And if you do accidentally hurt someone, make things right with them. It may be hard, but it’s the right thing to do,” he said.
As of late, it is still unclear whether or not Pratters will return to “13 Reasons Why” Season 2. Even Shelton himself has no idea. But given the chance, he would love to reprise his role.
