Keemstar announces split from 20-year-old girlfriend after controversy

‘Drama Alert’ host Keemstar announced his split from 20-year-old girlfriend Christine Youngman. The star said he is “currently single and accepting applications.”

The relationship had been subject to scrutiny among fans and fellow YouTubers due to the pair’s 19 year age gap.

On August 7, Keemstar addressed the “controversy.” He stated that the only people who had a “problem” with the age gap were his “enemies” and “unattractive females.”

While some poked fun at the YouTuber’s relationship, others were quick to defend it. “She’s an adult, you’re an adult,” one Twitter user said. “Keemstar doesn’t date 20-year-olds,” said another. “20 year-olds date Keemstar.”
