Zac Brown’s restraining order request to stop estranged wife’s social media posts denied by judge

Couple announced divorce in December 2023

ATLANTA — A federal judge has denied county music superstar Zac Brown’s request for a temporary restraining order against his estranged wife Kelly Yazdi.

Brown filed the restraining order on May 20 to have Yazdi remove an Instagram post to keep her “or anyone acting on her behalf from making any public statement or disclosing any confidential or private information in violation of the terms of Ms. Yazdi’s Employee and Confidentiality Agreements,” as well as “anyone acting on her behalf from otherwise making any defamatory, false, untrue, or otherwise damaging statements regarding ZBC and its affiliates, Mr. Brown and his family, and the Zac Brown Band and any of its members or their family members.”

In his ruling, the judge wrote that he “denies the motion for restraining order on the basis that the court has serious reservations as to whether (Brown) will prevail on the merits.”

The couple announced they were divorcing in Dec. 2023 – about four months after getting married in a Georgia ceremony, People Magazine reported.

Over the last few weeks, Yazdi has been making social media posts describing the couple’s relationship.
