Marilyn Manson has been ordered to pay Evan Rachel Wood $326,956, covering much of the legal fees the Westworld actress amassed defending herself from the musician’s defamation lawsuit.
Manson (real name Brian Warner), 55, sued his former partner Wood, 36, and her friend Ilma Gore for defamation in March 2022. The suit claimed that the pair were attempting to characterise Manson “as a rapist and abuser” in the public eye, “derail[ing]” his career in the process.
