“This information should be public”: Pokimane updates fans on Amouranth’s status
Amouranth and Pokimane
Amouranth, one of the most popular creators on the live streaming platform Twitch, has around six million fans. Fans and other streamers, however, have voiced concern after the 28-year-old broadcasted an unsettling phone call and troubling text messages from her husband.
The streamer’s pretty shocking claims about being in what she described as an abusive marriage has taken the internet by storm. The Twitch star admittedly revealed that her husband, for the most part, has control over all their finances, and pressured her into living a facade, and threatened her.
Her Twitch stream abruptly ended when someone asked her out of blue if she had taken her prescription and walked into the room, leaving her present whereabouts unknown. Although Ludwig claims her asistant told him she is “safe and okay,” she was unable to be reached.

Instead of defending the abused streamer in the midst of this dilemma, many individuals have resorted to the internet to accuse her of playing the victim card. Popular streamers have openly expressed their disagreement with the online bullies in response to this.
Valkyrae remarked, “It’s disgusting seeing the internet continue to invalidate and dehumanize victims of abuse. What Amouranth has been trapped in is very real.. especially having joint accounts, married, dealing with threats, etc. I hope she gets the freedom and relief any human in abuse deserves.“
Pokimane agreed with Valkyrae’s viewpoint. She later tweeted, “tell em“
Currently, Amouranth seems to be in a better state than before, where she has seemingly parted ways with her husband. While her husban is seeking help, Amouranth too is seeking emotional therapy.
