FaZe Banks opened up on his past relationship with model Alissa Violet, explaining that no one could “pay him enough” to get back with his internet-famous ex-girlfriend.
YouTube star and FaZe co-owner Ricky Banks’ romance with model and influencer Alissa Violet used to be the talk of the town.
The two internet stars used to be the social media “it” couple — but their relationship became fraught with drama that ultimately caused it to go down in flames.
Violet notably took up with Banks after her breakup with YouTuber Jake Paul in 2017. After being together for two years, things started to get hairy, with the model claiming her boyfriend had cheated on her with multiple women before breaking things off officially.
Despite their tense breakup, the two appear to be on good terms now, with the ex-couple even appearing in a few photos together in 2022 that sparked rumors among fans that they’d secretly gotten back together.
