Ava Kris Tyson officially steps away from MrBeast in response to allegations Instagram: KrisTysonAva Kris Tyson has responded to allegations that she \u201cgroomed\u201d a young fan, and has revealed that she\u2019s left MrBeast\u2019s team. The allegations first sparked on July 21 after several YouTube videos shared messages supposedly sent by Kris when they were 20 years old. At the time of the messages, the alleged victim was 13 years old. LavaGS, one of the alleged victims, came out in defense of Tyson \u2013 saying that the accusations were \u201cmassive lies and twisting the truth.\u201d \u201cAva never did anything wrong and just made a few edgy jokes. I was never exploited or taken advantage of,\u201d they said. On July 23, Ava Kris Tyson responded to the accusations, apologizing for their actions and revealing that they have left MrBeast\u2019s team. \u201cI would like to apologize for any of my past behavior or comments if it hurt or offended anyone. It was not my intent. Seeing recent events, we\u2019ve mutually decided it\u2019s best I permanently step away from all things MrBeast and social media to focus on my family and mental health,\u201d she said. Later that day, Ava added further remarks beneath her initial post, where she called her past behavior \u201cunacceptable\u201d but maintained that she never \u201cgroomed\u201d anyone. \u201cI humbly apologize to anyone I have hurt with my unacceptable social media posts, past actions, and to those who may feel betrayed by how I used to act online,\u201d she wrote. She continued: \u201cIn past years, I have learned that my old humor is not acceptable. I cannot change who I was, but I can continue to work on myself. \u201cI don\u2019t want these accusations to impact the hundreds of people who work at MrBeast, which is why I have stepped away.\u201d Since the allegations broke, several prominent content creators have shared their thoughts about the situation, including Twitch star Pokimane, YouTube streamer Valkyrae, Ludwig, and more. Pokimane said that \u201cany inappropriate behavior towards minors is unacceptable,\u201d and that she didn\u2019t know all the details about the ordeal at the time of posting. Valkyrae has publicly denounced Ava\u2019s apology, calling it \u201cdisappointing and disgusting\u201d in a quote-retweet. At the time of writing, MrBeast has not responded to the situation. This comes just weeks after Dr Disrespect admitted that he sent inappropriate messages to minors through Twitch\u2019s Whisper feature back in 2017, and that it was the reason behind his ban from the Amazon owned platform in 2020.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
