Days after uploading a mysterious Instagram story claiming he was “single and alone,” YouTube sensation KSI has publicly revealed that he and his girlfriend had broken up.
Fans have voiced concern for YouTuber, rapper, and boxer KSI after he claimed to be “single and alone” on Instagram. The simple post, which featured white writing on a black background, was quickly erased after it was published. However, fans quickly became aware of the tweet and took to social media to express their concerns for the musician’s mental health.
On November 3, KSI went to YouTube to clarify the situation, realizing that by releasing and erasing the mysterious statement, he’d sparked a firestorm online. That’s not all; he also revealed that he and his girlfriend had broken up, putting the “single and alone” remark into context.
He stated; “Me and my girlfriend are not together anymore. It just didn’t work out. It’s no one’s fault, it just didn’t work out. But it’s okay. It happened a while ago. Drunk me decided to f**king do this, like a f**king idiot, and yeah. I don’t know. It is what it is. It’s out there in the world, and I knew the internet would go crazy.”
KSI stressed that he is OK and that he is surrounded by family and friends. He also expressed gratitude to his fans for reaching out to him after his deleted tweet became viral.
Many speculated that KSI was dating Anne Marie, a musician who appeared in a handful of his tracks, including ‘Farm Animals’ and ‘Little Bit of Fun.’ KSI has never revealed the identity of his girlfriend online, despite widespread speculation.
Despite their split, it doesn’t appear that KSI will reveal the secret anytime soon — but followers tend to be grateful that their favorite influencer is doing well in the face of the unexpected news.
