Ava Kris Tyson, a known associate and friend of YouTuber and philanthropist MrBeast has distanced themselves from the creator.
Tyson regularly starred in MrBeast videos, but was recently publicly accused of inappropriately messaging underage fans.

The fan in question has stepped forward to say nothing was wrong with the interactions, and that all Tyson did was make some “edgy jokes” and that the “situation takes away from children who are actively being exploited everyday online.”
Unfortunately the user was underage at the time of the interaction, and while there’s no evidence to say any criminal activity was going on, it’s still been deemed as inappropriate conduct with many fans calling for explanations and justice.
In a brief statement on Twitter/X, Ava Kris Tyson announced that they’ll be stepping back from future MrBeast projects, and that it was a “mutually decided” that it’d be for the best.
The full statement read: “I would like to apologise for any of my past behavior or comments if it hurt or offended anyone. It was not my intent. Seeing recent events we’ve mutually decided it’s best I permanently step away from all things MrBeast and social media to focus on my family and mental health.”
Tyson also added “I never groomed anyone. The person who gets brought up in these accusations @LavaGS has vocally supported that they are false.
The situation is echoing last month’s DrDisrespect controversy, which saw another content creator outed as having inappropriate conversations with underage supporters.
Tyson’s controversy has also led to the harassment of other transexuals by idiots looking for an excuse to be transphobic.
As the allegations are yet to proven without a doubt, Ava Kris Tyson will no longer work with MrBeast on future content, with the creator himself yet to comment on the situation at the time of writing.
