MrBeast’s YouTube co-host and friend Ava Kris Tyson has quit their channel after grooming allegations emerged online, which she denies.
Ms Tyson, 28, who features prominently on MrBeast’s 305 million subscriber channel, was accused of sending inappropriate messages to a minor, aged 13 at the time, when she was 20.She denies claims of grooming, as does the alleged victim, but accepts some of her behaviour online may have been offensive or inappropriate.Writing on X, Ms Tyson wrote: “I would like to apologize for any of my past behavior or comments if it hurt or offended anyone. It was not my intent.
“To lump these two factors together to create a narrative that my behavior extended beyond bad edgy jokes is disgusting and did not happen.“In 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.“I don't want these accusations to impact the hundreds of people who work at MrBeast, which is why I have stepped away.”The allegations first emerged in a YouTube video last month, which named the alleged victim.
