What happened to SSSniperwolf?
Recently, however, SSSniperWolf’s career has been troubled by controversies. After breaking up with her partner Evan Young in September 2022, Young sued her in August 2023, claiming she failed to pay him for his work and that he was behind her scripted content. SSSniperWolf attempted to have the lawsuit dismissed, calling it a revenge tactic.
She also had a conflict with fellow YouTuber jacksfilms, who accused her of profiting from other people’s content without proper credit. Their dispute escalated when SSSniperWolf posted a picture of jacksfilms’ house on Instagram, leading to accusations of doxing and calls for YouTube to demonetize her channels. A petition to remove her from the platform gathered a lot of support, causing a brief suspension of her income.
SSSniperWolf has apologized for the incident, and although she’s back to posting, the controversies have definitely affected her reputation.
