FaZe Lacy and Darla Claire Split Amid Allegations of Infidelity and Contractual Manipulation
4 min readTwitch streamer FaZe Lacy finds himself in the midst of a scandal following his breakup with ex-girlfriend Darla Claire. The controversy erupted when Lacy’s cameraman, Santi, made a tearful revelation on July 11, 2024, alleging that Darla had been cheating on Lacy for months while secretly living with her ex-boyfriend, influencer Bryce Parker.
Santi claimed that Darla coerced him into lying about her whereabouts and their relationship status. “She made me lie about everything,” Santi disclosed. “She made me lie about the house. She made me lie that she was living in my house while she was living with Bryce.” He also alleged that Darla had Bryce pretend to be her cousin to avoid suspicion and that she was under a contract to manipulate Lacy.

Lacy himself joined the stream shortly after Santi’s revelations, expressing his dismay. “You guys don’t understand, bro. When you have someone like her in your ear manipulating everything. I literally told you guys days ago there’s more that I found out. And, as Santi just said, apparently Darla was under a contract, still with Bryce the entire time,” he said. “This whole time, she’s been bed-hopping. My bed one night, his bed the next night. It doesn’t get more evil than that.”
The fallout from these accusations has been intense, with other FaZe Clan members, including PlaqueBoyMax, JasonTheWeen, and StableRonaldo, questioning Santi on stream to uncover more details. The trio grilled Santi on why he hadn’t come clean sooner, probing into the nature of his relationship with Darla and any contractual agreements he might have had with her.
The drama escalated further when streamer Clix shared that Darla’s mother had reached out to him, asking him to stop discussing her daughter negatively online. “‘Do not speak about me on stream, either,’ says her mom,” Clix read from his text messages.
Support for Lacy has poured in from fans and fellow content creators, including FaZe Adapt and FaZe Banks, who joined his stream to offer words of encouragement. “I know you,” Adapt told Lacy. “I know you’re a good person. …At any point in the last few months, you would’ve told him you were playing him,” he said, referring to Santi. Banks added, “We all care about you. So, you can pick up the phone and call me and ask me anytime, ‘Yo, what do you think about this? What’s your actual opinion about this?’ And you want me to be honest with you? I’ll be honest with you every f*cking step of the way.”
This incident follows a prior disagreement between Lacy and Darla, which occurred a week earlier when the two argued after Darla allegedly visited her ex-boyfriend Bryan and lied about it. Darla countered by accusing Lacy of seeing his ex-girlfriend, which he vehemently denied, explaining that he had only seen her briefly at a wedding two months prior.

Lacy addressed these issues in detail during a Twitch stream, which he later uploaded to YouTube under the title ‘The Truth About Darla.’ “You’re lying on my name to try to make yourself look better,” he said. “What kind of manipulation tactic is that?”
Darla responded in her own live stream, insisting she hadn’t lied about Lacy seeing his ex. “I didn’t lie though,” she argued. “Everyone knew that. He even said, he told the f*cking stream. What did I lie about? That he saw his ex? No, I didn’t lie about that. Everyone knew that, okay?”
The ongoing saga has sparked a wave of reactions across social media, with many users expressing their sympathy for Lacy and condemning Darla’s actions. Lacy, who joined FaZe in March 2024, has received steadfast support from his teammates, underscoring the tight-knit nature of the FaZe Clan community during turbulent times.
