Amouranth’s team gives update after police visit following husband abuse allegations
Twitch: amouranthA person employed by Twitch streamer ‘Amouranth’ has confirmed that the broadcaster is alive and safe after a disturbing stream revealed her relationship with her abusive husband.
Late on October 15, popular internet personality Kaitlyn ‘Amouranth’ Siragusa went live on Twitch during a phone call with her husband — information that many fans were unaware of.
The volatile phone call revealed that Amouranth is in an allegedly abusive relationship, with her husband screaming at her throughout the conversation.
Amouranth revealed a series of text messages from her husband, in which he appeared to threaten to kill her dogs and drain her bank accounts if she didn’t do as instructed.
Her stream ended abruptly, with a door opening up behind her and her assistant asking if she’d taken her medication off-camera. Many fans and fellow streamers were worried for her safety, with the likes of Alinity and Ludwig reaching out to ask about her wellbeing.
