Emma Roberts, ex Evan Peters have tense onstage reunion years after domestic violence arrest

Exes Emma Roberts and Evan Peters shared a tense on-stage reunion this week, years after the actress was arrested for alleged domestic violence against him in 2013.

The former co-stars made a rare joint appearance during the Disney Advertising Upfront showcase on Wednesday to announce Paul Anthony Kelly’s addition to Season 13 of Ryan Murphy’s “American Horror Story.”

Roberts, 35, was dressed up in a black strapless mini dress decorated with red roses for the event. Peters, 39, sported a teal jacket over a white tee and black trousers.

The former couple was joined onstage by fellow “AHS” alums Sarah Paulson, Billie Lourd, Gabourey Sidibe and Angela Bassett.

But the exes also kept a few feet apart as they stood on the North Javits Center stage in New York City to help promote Season 13 of the long-running FX horror anthology series.

Reps for Roberts and Peters did not immediately respond to Page Six’s requests for comment.

The “We’re the Millers” star and “X-Men” actor’s tumultuous relationship began in February 2012 when the pair met on the set of the comedy-drama “Adult World.”

They sparked relationship rumors that July after being photographed holding hands at a wedding, and made their red carpet debut as a couple during the 70th Golden Globe Awards in January 2013.

But five months later, Roberts was arrested following an alleged domestic violence incident at a hotel in Montreal in July 2013.

The “Scream 4” star was released shortly after, and Peters – who reportedly suffered a bloody nose during the purported incident – didn’t press charges.

“It was an unfortunate incident and misunderstanding,” the pair’s reps said in a statement at the time. “Ms. Roberts was released after questioning and the couple are working together to move past it.”

Despite the reported domestic violence incident, Peters proposed to Roberts a year later in January 2014.

The then-couple also continued working together, most notably for four seasons of “AHS” beginning with “AHS: Coven” in 2013 and followed by “AHS: Freak Show” in 2014, “AHS: Cult” in 2017 and “AHS: Apocalypse” in 2019.
