In her October 18 video, Amouranth said, “Thank you everyone who has been super kind and supportive lately. Over the past few days I’ve had lots of people reach out to show concern, that means a lot. I didn’t think that many people would give a s*** to be honest. It’s kind of crazy. … It’s been a wild ride.”
She added, “As for the husband situation, I guess as some of you probably saw the other night, he called be during the stream and I disappeared for like two hours. And then I finally unmuted about an hour and a half into the call, I guess. I apologize if that was hard to watch for people. I didn’t really know what else to do, because he was threatening to tweet s***. He was threatening to tweet lies and I wanted to beat him to the punch. Sorry for if I triggered anybody with past abuse. Anyways, so that happened.”
In the October 16 video, Amouranth streamed herself talking on the phone with her husband. She said he was emotionally and verbally abusing her and threatening her by controlling her finances. Amouranth also said her husband threatened to kill her dogs if she didn’t do a 24-hour stream.

Sometimes he’d like take phones, etc., so that he would never hear them. And I think when he heard himself on that call it really sunk in how much of an a***** he is. So as of today I have access to all of my accounts and finances again. He’s not here. He’s getting help. And I’m seeking legal and emotional counsel.”
She said, “I have access to all my accounts again. All the 2-factors, everything. So that’s not a concern anymore.” Amouranth also said she had been dealing with the police after the October 16 stream. Concerned fans called law enforcement asking them to check on her.
