28-year-old YouTuber Kris Tyson, who now goes by the name Ava Kris Tyson, has been facing allegations for the past few weeks that she groomed a minor boy named Lava 8 years before.
A Twitter user named Maw shared a post on July 22, writing, “Kris Tyson from MrBeast has been messaging a male minor starting when the minor was around 13 & Tyson was 20…” Further, Maw claimed that Kris and the minor continuously exchanged homo-erotic jokes for years.
After these kinds of allegations emerged, Kris asked for an apology for her past behavior through Twitter and eventually announced that she had permanently stepped out from her association with MrBeast, saying she would focus on her mental health and family from now onward.
For a while, it appeared that Kris kneeled down in front of all these claims. But that’s not the case. In her recent tweet, Kris defended herself by saying that she never groomed anyone.
Her further tweet read, “The person who gets brought up in these accusations @LavaGS has vocally supported that they are false.”

Though people have been accusing Kris Tyson of being a child predator, claiming that he inappropriately talked with a minor boy named Lava when he was 14 years of age, Lava, on the other has made his comments upon allegations, saying it’s not the truth.
Sharing a post on Twitter on July 22, Lava wrote that all these accusations are massive lies. Whatever messages they had had were just edgy jokes, and Kris never exploited him during their conversation.
These videos are massive lies and twisting the truth. Ava never did anything wrong and just made a few edgy jokes. I was never exploited or taken advantage of.

On the contrary, MrBeast has tweeted about all these ongoing issues, stating that Kris’ online behavior disgusts him and is unacceptable.
MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson, also said that he wouldn’t accept such inappropriate behavior and would conduct further investigation to determine the truth.
Well, whatever is happening right now, it’s pretty crystal clear that Kris’ case is becoming a sensational issue on the Internet, attracting people’s attention. But, it’s yet to watch over what will happen next.
