Maddy Spidell, the ex-girlfriend of YouTube sensation MrBeast, has stirred up social media with a series of cryptic posts that seem to take aim at her “weirdo” ex-boyfriend. As MrBeast faces increasing scrutiny over various allegations, including hiring a registered sex offender and the Ava Kris Tyson controversy, Maddy Spidell’s recent comments have added fuel to the fire.

Spidell, who dated MrBeast from 2019 to 2022, took to Instagram on August 8, 2024, to share her thoughts, though she avoided directly naming anyone. In her Instagram story, she tagged YouTube and urged the platform to reconsider who they feature on their trending page, sparking speculation that her comments were directed at MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donaldson.

The posts quickly went viral, with many online users interpreting them as a reflection on her past relationship with the YouTube megastar. In one of her stories, Spidell shared her experience of watching people being mistreated “silently” over the years and mentioned the emotional toll that dating someone famous had on her. She revealed that she had to undergo extensive therapy to cope with the aftermath of the relationship and the public scrutiny that came with it.

While Spidell did not explicitly name MrBeast in her posts, she described one of her past relationships as a “cautionary tale” for other young women, warning them about “scary people” who can hurt and manipulate them. This vague yet pointed message led many to believe she was alluding to her relationship with the famous YouTuber.

“Three years away from that weirdo, my skin is clear, my relationships and friendships are flourishing, I’m frolicking in a field,” Spidell tweeted later that day. She acknowledged the criticism she received for her vague statements but stood firm in her decision not to name the individual involved, implying that the details of her experience were clear enough for those who needed to know.

The relationship between Spidell and MrBeast was first made public in June 2019, when they appeared in a now-deleted Instagram post together. In 2020, MrBeast made headlines by surprising Spidell with 100,000 roses for Valentine’s Day, a grand gesture that was featured in one of his videos. However, the relationship ended in 2022, and Maddy Spidell’s recent comments suggest that the experience may have left her with lingering emotional scars.

In her longer post, Spidell reflected on how the relationship impacted her during the formative years of 19 to 21. She expressed how difficult it was to navigate the challenges of dating someone in the public eye, noting that there was no “user manual” for dealing with sudden fame and the pressures that come with it.

Despite the intense speculation, Spidell made it clear that she had no intention of bringing anyone down. Instead, she wanted to share her story as a warning to others. “I do not aim to take anyone down, just simply and explicitly tell you that there are scary people out there,” she wrote, emphasizing the importance of protecting oneself from toxic relationships.

As the situation continues to unfold, MrBeast has yet to respond to Maddy Spidell’s posts or the growing controversy surrounding him. For now, the internet is left piecing together the clues as fans and critics alike speculate on the true nature of Spidell’s messages.
