Grammy-winning country singer Zac Brown has filed a lawsuit against his estranged wife, Kelly Yazdi, demanding the removal of an Instagram post that allegedly tarnished his public image. According to court documents filed in Georgia, Brown claims that Yazdi's post violated a confidentiality agreement she had previously signed.

The lawsuit seeks an emergency temporary restraining order that would compel Yazdi to take down the post. Additionally, Brown is requesting the court to prevent Yazdi from making any defamatory or damaging statements about him, his family, and his bandmates.

The specific Instagram post in question has not been specified in the legal documents. However, Brown argues that it violated the agreement, which was aimed at protecting his family from online harassment and speculation.

Yazdi, who is identified as Brown's wife and a former employee of his company in the court documents, has not provided a comment on the lawsuit at the time of reporting.

Speaking to NBC News, Zac Brown stated, "I took the necessary steps to enforce the agreement between us, to maintain personal and business affairs in confidence, and to protect my family from online harassment and speculation." He further emphasized the importance of keeping private matters private and moving forward with respect.

Zac Brown is widely recognized as the co-founder and lead singer of the Zac Brown Band. Throughout his career, he has garnered significant acclaim, winning three Grammy Awards, including Best New Artist in 2010 and Best Country Album in 2013.

Zac Brown and Kelly Yazdi got engaged in 2022 and tied the knot in Georgia last August. However, they announced their split just four months later, stating that they are in the process of a divorce but wishing each other the best and expressing gratitude for their time together.

Prior to his marriage with Yazdi, Brown was married to jewelry designer Shelly Brown. Their split was announced in 2018 after 12 years of marriage, and the former couple shares five children.

The outcome of Zac Brown's lawsuit against Kelly Yazdi is yet to be determined as legal proceedings continue.
