Legal case
In March 2019, leaked text messages showed that Kevin Tsujihara had promised auditions and acting jobs to Kirk in return for sex, facilitated by her then-friend, businessman James Packer, in September 2013. WarnerMedia was investigating the allegations.[23] In September 2020, her lawyers filed a petition in the Los Angeles Superior Court to vacate a gag order that has kept her mostly silent amid the years-long battle. The petition paints a picture of Tsujihara engaging in nonconsensual sex.[24]The Hollywood Reporter also revealed information about how Tsujihara and former NBCUniversal Vice-chairman Ronald Meyer colluded to cover up the real nature of their relationships with Kirk, reached settlement and court cases.[24]
Personal life
While living in LA, Kirk met film and television director Neil Marshall. They began dating in 2018 and got engaged in late 2019. Kirk lives with Marshall in England.[citation needed] She is an advocate of animal rights.[17]
