Last we heard of the custody arrangement between Evan Rachel Wood and Jaime Bell was in May 2023. Then it was reported that according to court documents, Evan Rachel Wood lost primary custody of her son Jack to her ex-husband Jaime Bell, who wanted "the Court to know that Evan's recent behavior with Jack is truly alarming." Among the "truly alarming" things cited by Jaime was that she was "feeding" their son false information about Marilyn Manson, which caused him to have crippling anxiety and fear.

There has been no comment as of yet from Manson's team, but he has denied "each and every allegation" against him made by his former assistant. Specifically he "denies that he assaulted, battered, harassed, or discriminated against Plaintiff."
