Brenner says their relationship, which reportedly ended last year, was marked by numerous occasions where Akil hit her and forced her to perform oral sex.
As well, she claims that Akil took photos of a particular sexual encounter, saying she never gave him permission to do so.
Actress and writer Amber Dixon Brenner’s lawsuit claims that she and Salim Akil had started their affair around ten years ago, during his still-ongoing marriage with Black Lightning co-developer Mara Brock Akil.
