Twitch star Amouranth tells fans she’s “free” now after accusing her husband of emotional abuse — ‘I was a ‘Truman Show’ for too long’

Twitch star Amouranth updated viewers on her situation in an October 17 video. Twitch/@amouranthTwitch star Amouranth told viewers she’s “free” two days after accusing her husband of abuse. She said her husband forced her to stream, controlled her finances, and threatened to kill her dogs.

Amouranth told viewers she’s not sure “when or if” she’ll be fully back online or what the content will be. Amouranth, a Twitch streamer and one of OnlyFans’ most popular creators, updated viewers on Monday to say she was “free” and in control of her finances again, telling viewers that her husband was away “getting help” and she was “seeking legal and emotional counsel. “On October 15, the streamer — real name Kaitlyn Siragusa — revealed in a Twitch stream that she was married and accused her husband of emotional abuse, controlling her finances, forcing her to stream, and threatening to burn her money “in court” and kill her dogs.

Siragusa thanked viewers for their kindness and support. “I didn’t think that many people would give a shit, to be honest. It’s kind of crazy,” the content creator said.

“Even people who don’t like me, even haters who are like, ‘damn, I fuckin’ hate Amouranth, but you know what, I hope she’s OK,’ that’s so nice. “”As of today, I have access to all of my accounts and finances again,” Siragusa told viewers. “Some people, though, seem to be using the situation for personal gain and clout, which is less moving,” she continued.

“Unfortunately, my former cameraman seems to be one of those people. “Siragusa went on to say the employee withheld communications that escalated situations with her husband and pretended “to be a conduit of information” on Twitter but instead badgered “other staff to give them information to tweet” about her and encouraged people she didn’t know to show up at her door. In her original October 15 stream, Siragusa said her husband had put two-factor authentication on all her accounts that routed to his phone number.

She said he threatened to leave her with $1 million (which, according to a screenshot shared to Twitter in July, is less than what she makes in a month on OnlyFans) and “burn” the rest of her money “in court” or put it all into crypto. “It keeps you there with the fear and the threats if you’re going to do something to your animals, and then he’s nice again and says everything is going to be OK,” she continued. She also shared text messages that appeared to be from her husband, calling her a “dumb fuck” and threatening to throw her merch off a balcony, delete her social media accounts, buy “options that expire and blasting the cash,” and “shut down the real work bank account” and donate the money if she didn’t call him.

Siragusa said her husband told her acknowledging that she was married would “ruin the business model,” so she pretended to be single. “The therapist even told him that it’s a form of psychological abuse and that I’m basically living in a fancy prison,” she told viewers. In one portion of the stream, Siragusa filmed herself speaking to a person she identified as her husband.

“Why did you say you were going to kill my dogs?” she asks. “You just said you were going to kill my dogs if I didn’t do a 24-hour stream. “Siragusa told viewers she’ll take some time over the next week “to process and spend time with the animals” now that she’s not concerned about their welfare, and noted that she feels optimistic about the future and is happy she’s “free.

” She said she was unsure “when or if” she’ll be back to a full-time content schedule and expressed uncertainty about the future of the content. Responding to a comment that read, “I thought you were a girl boss,” Siragusa clarified, “no, I was a girl employee. Now I’m a girl boss again.

“”And I don’t have to wear cleavage every day,” she said, alluding to future streams without her husband’s influence. “I can wear clothes. “During the hour-long live stream, Siragusa talked about the “little things” that would change, like getting to sleep in, watching TV shows, camping, and seeing her horses.

“I can actually have friends again,” she said. “I’ve been a ‘Truman Show’ for too long,” she said, adding “I just hope people still watch, without so much titty showing. “Siragusa did not immediately respond to Insider’s request for comment.
