Kick streamer Felix ‘xQc’ Lengyel is getting fed up with his dad constantly embarrassing him in public.

xQc is one of the biggest streamers with millions of followers across Twitch and Kick, along with a massive bank account having been signed to a whopping $100M deal.

The streamer’s success has made his dad very proud, but according to the former Overwatch League pro, it can sometimes be too much, especially when the two are out in public together.

During a recent broadcast, xQc was explaining to fans how he likes it when they ask for his autograph or a picture, but his dad takes things too far.

xQc says his dad embarrasses him in front of airport employees

After responding to a fan who wanted his autograph at the airport, xQc recalled how his father would go up to strangers and tell them about how he’s the dad of a famous streamer.

“My dad, he goes around, and he will talk to airport employees and he’ll be like, ‘this is three letters: xQc!’” Lengyell exclaimed. “I’m like, ‘yo, can you not do that, please?’”

The image of seeing xQc’s dad screaming his name in front of random people at the airport is pretty wild and it’s clear that the Kick star isn’t a big fan of his family going out of their way to embarrass him.

“He’s trolling me!” Lengyel added.

xQc and his dad do have a pretty good relationship, despite the airport shenanigans. Back in 2023, his dad appeared on stream and revealed his surprising choice for his favorite female streamer.

Another time, in 2022, xQc’s father phoned him up during a live broadcast to check in on him after the streamer made comments about being ‘addicted’ to gambling.
