Jake Paul explains why FaZe Banks & Alissa Violet\u2019s breakup is \u201cmessy\u201d YouTube star Jake Paul released his track \u201cThese Days\u201d in mid-December, which seems to chronicle his 2017 split with ex-girlfriend Alissa Violet \u2014 who parted ways with FaZe co-founder Ricky Banks just ahead of the song\u2019s publication. Weeks after the song\u2019s release, Paul appeared on Adam22\u2019s \u201cNo Jumper\u201d podcast, where he gave his opinions on the Banks\/Alissa split in light of the track\u2019s apparent discussion on his own romance with Violet. With Violet publicly accusing Banks of multiple acts of infidelity via social media, Paul dubbed their breakup \u201cmessy\u201d and \u201csad,\u201d accusing both YouTubers of being party of their own destruction. \u201cIt\u2019s sad for Alissa,\u201d Paul admitted. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of weird s*** to talk about there. But the sad part is, \u2018Okay Alissa, didn\u2019t you learn your lesson the first time? Like, not put your business, your relationships online?\u2019 That\u2019s where I think it\u2019s messy.\u201d The Team 10 founder went on to take shots at Banks, seeming to hint at the FaZe mogul\u2019s hypocrisy after calling him out for being unfaithful to Violet back in 2017 during their notable feud. (Timestamp: 53:56 for mobile viewers) \u201cWhere it\u2019s also messy is how Banks came at me so hard for cheating on Alissa,\u201d he continued. \u201cAnd made me a villain to the internet because I cheated on Alissa. And then, he goes and does the same thing, apparently.\u201d While Banks has yet to respond to Paul\u2019s statement on the matter, he replied to Alissa\u2019s ample accounts of infidelity in a lengthy Notes post in wake of the drama, claiming that, although there are \u201ctwo sides to every story,\u201d \u201cwhat matters is that we\u2019re both humans and that we\u2019ve both hurt each other.\u201d The two announced an end to their long-term relationship in July 2019 after speculation of a fight had broken out between them, which was at first denied by Banks. Now, it seems that their romance is over for good \u2014 and it doesn\u2019t look like Paul is intent on staying silent on the subject.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
