The former couple, who are parents to2-year-old daughter Dream Renée, allegedly got into a physical altercation in December 2016 in the home of Kardashian’s younger sister,Kylie Jenner. In September 2017, Kylie, 21, and her older brother, 31,sued Chyna, 30, for battery, assault and vandalism, alleging she attempted to choke Kardashian with an iPhone cord during a fight.

The interviewer then asked him if Chyna’s “nails across your chest” — a reference to his accusation that she ripped his shirt in December 2016 — “felt good,” to which Kardashian responded: “It didn’t really occur to me that it was going to be, go into, you know, guns and strangling … I thought she was just being drunk, and you know, trying to be funny.”
When asked for clarification in the deposition, Kardashian added that the physical contact made during the shirt-ripping “didn’t feel good. That’s for sure.”
Chyna’s filing also revealed that Kardashian is seeking $500,000 in damages because of the night in question, which Chyna does not believe she should have to pay. She instead is willing to hand over $5,000 — $250 of which would be for the ripped shirt.
The year after the alleged fight, in July 2017, the exes made headlines once again because Kardashian posted graphic and expletive-ridden content about Chyna on social media — including three naked photos — whileaccusing her of drug use, alcohol abuse and infidelity.

In a statement to PEOPLE in response at the time, Chyna’s attorney said, “We are confident that we will prevail on this motion and at trial.”
