Twitch star Imane "Pokimane" has opened up about her current relationship status in her latest YouTube video, revealing to her audience that she is currently going through a breakup. The creator had a candid conversation with her viewers regarding details about her dating life. This is a rare occurrence for the creator, as she is known to keep her relationships private.
While sitting in a park and sipping on a Matcha drink, the creator stated that she wanted to discuss her current breakup since it was "interesting" and different from the ones she's had prior. She said:
"I've never really talked about a breakup before, and, because I don't really like date in the public eye, it doesn't really feel like it makes sense to either... Frankly, this breakup feels different than past ones."
Explaining the reasons why she found this breakup to be "different" from previous ones, she continued:
"When you're in your like, mid-to-late twenties, and when you start envisioning your life with someone, speaking about marriage and kids, and like really being in that headspace and planning for your future, and then all of that kind of dissolves. You know, it's a lot to process."

Pokimane is a massive star on Twitch, arguably one of the biggest female streamers on the platform. Given her pronounced status within the content creation community, many have speculated about the Moroccan-Canadian personality's relationship status over the years.
The video uploaded to her YouTube channel on July 8, 2024, marked Pokimane's return to the video-hosting platform after four months of no video uploads. Apart from discussing her split, she also had words of advice for those going through similar circumstances. She said:
"If you are or have been going through a breakup, just know, one, you're so not alone... Two, time heals all, and you're kind of supposed to feel like sh** for a little while so it's going to be okay."
Pokimane also stated that she was trying to be more open to her audience about her life, and get out of her "shell". She said:
"I miss sharing more of my life, and I still find a lot of joy in that. I'm trying to get out of my shell a little bit more, especially now that I'm single."
Pokimane recently announced she was taking a break from her regular streaming schedule as well as social media to celebrate her brother's engagement. This came after her feud on X with contentious streamer Nicolas "Sneako."
