The internet has started talking after Jonathan Majors has hired the same lawyer as now-incarcerated reality star Jen Shah.
Jonathan Majors has gotten people talking after hiring the same lawyer as Real Housewives of Salt Lake City Jen Shah, who is now in jail for wire fraud.
The attorney Priya Chaudhry is representing the Creed actor after he was arrested on charges for assault last week in New York.
The name rang bells for those aware of reality star Jen Shah, who is now in prison for over 6 years for her role in a telemarketing fraud scheme.

According to her website, Priya Chaudhry has completed over 40 jury trials in 20 years of practice, and the connection between Majors and Shah has sparked discussion online.
"WAIT jonathan majors has the same lawyer as Jen Shah?" one user wrote on Twitter.
