Megan Thee Stallion just scored another legal win in her defamation case against blogger Milagro Gramz

On Thursday, October 9, Judge Lisette M. Reid ruled that Gramz (real name: Milagro Elizabeth Cooper) intentionally deleted key evidence, including thousands of text messages, despite being told to preserve them. The court found that Gramz even removed the WhatsApp app from her phone — a move that likely wiped out major conversations linked to the case.

Megan Thee Stallion‘s defamation lawsuit against commentator Milagro Cooper is set for trial, and jurors will be specially instructed that Milagro “deleted thousands of text messages” despite a written notice not to.

According to court docs, Megan’s legal team had officially warned Gramz before the lawsuit was filed to preserve all physical and digital communications. She didn’t. Now, since the deleted messages can’t be recovered, the judge ruled that jurors are allowed to assume the missing texts would’ve damaged Gramz’s defense.

As part of the ruling, Gramz has also been ordered to pay Megan‘s legal costs tied to this evidence dispute. Both sides now have five days to agree on how much she’ll owe — including fees from the evidentiary hearing.

This marks another blow in the lawsuit Megan filed earlier this year, accusing Gramz of spreading false information and working in tandem with Tory Lanez’s father, Sonstar Peterson, to run a targeted smear campaign against her following the 2020 shooting. Megan alleges Gramz acted as a digital “mouthpiece” for Lanez, escalating the harassment she endured online.

And this isn’t the first time the court has penalized Gramz — back in July, she was ordered to cough up $5,000 for failing to turn over her messages.

Megan‘s suit also accuses the blogger of sharing a deepfake pornographic video meant to defame her — one of the final straws that led the Houston rapper to take things to court.

Bottom line: Megan’s not just fighting for her name — she’s holding people accountable for what they say and do online. And the courts are backing her up.
