Speaking to OUT Magazine, Champa said: “With social media, it’s a bit complicated. Our relationship became a brand.

“I want to say I have nothing but love and respect for this person. I spent my entire twenties with this person. I grew up with this person. He’s a very special person and will always remain that way for me.”

Going more into detail about why they chose to end their relationship, Champa brings up their nine-year age difference as one of the main factors.

“I think as you age, you kind of realize different things,” he said. “Then on top of it, the social media aspect of it and people constantly comparing ourselves to each other and the pressure of maintaining this image. It almost became, I would tell people, like a Black Mirror episode.”

Explaining what the breakup will mean for their content, Champa went on to say that they won’t make any more content together, but that he’s excited to explore and find his own voice online. He’s also looking into continuing his career in modeling and acting.

Pierre has yet to open up about what he will be doing next.
