Kai Cenat’s break-up with ex-girlfriend Gigi Alayah has become one of the biggest internet controversies of the year going into 2026. It started with a very soft declaration from Kai claiming he was now single and has blown up into serious allegations made by both sides via leaked text messages, lengthy videos, Instagram stories, and everything in between.
The catalyst of the situation is Kai’s assistant, Brianna Lewis, who went on Instagram to provide proof by releasing what she claims is proof of leaked DM’s and also audio recordings refuting the allegations of their break-up.
How The Breakup Drama Started?
On December 27th, Kai confirmed his split with Gigi Alayah. He published a blunt posting about it stating he was single and done with relationships. He did not explain why nor did he accuse or blame Gigi for anything; however, many fans found a link between Gigi and another well-known rapper as well as speculating that there was infidelity involved.
Initially, there were no actual records to prove that any claims being made; however, speculation continued to grow by less than four weeks of his posting on his social media accounts about being single and no longer involved with Gigi and then moved to other social media platforms including TikTok, X, and Instagram. This has taken what should have been a private matter into a viral topic – all as a result of people on social media.
Gigi Alayah Breaks Her Silence With “The Real”
On January 24, 2026, Gigi addressed the rumors via a nearly 90-minute YouTube video called “The Real.” Gigi categorically denied cheating on Kai and categorically denied that she was financially dependent on him. She also denied any involvement with NBA YoungBoy, asserting that the rumors were unfounded and inappropriate.
Gigi claimed that the screenshots disseminated on social media were forged and would allow her to submit her telephone for confirmation of authenticity. She affirmed that, during the relationship, she crossed a line in responding to male friends but emphasized that the relationships were not romantic or inappropriate.
Kai Cenat’s Assistant Fires Back With Alleged Leaks
Within just a few hours of the video posted by Gigi Alayah, Kai Cenat’s assistant, Brianna Lewis made a public response by releasing what she claims are DMs from Gigi, as well as a recording that allegedly shows Gigi speaking to another man, all while she was still dating Kai. Brianna claims that Gigi left out important context in the video.
In addition to the proof of Gigi communicating with another man while dating Kai, Brianna also explained that she started working with Kai when he was only 19 years old and did not have formal management. She explained that she acts as a protector for him, and feels a responsibility to help him, both professionally and personally, and that Kai himself found out about the DMs, and accused Gigi of planning to cover up the truth.
Gigi Pushes Back And Accuses Kai Of Cheating
Gigi denied all allegations and claimed that the leaked content was inauthentic. She reposted them with claims that they had inconsistent formatting. She said that the Vegas references weren’t consistent with her travel history and were taken out of context or related to older situations.
She made a major counter-claim by accusing Kai of cheating during the course of their relationship, citing an occasion when she found another woman coming out of Kai’s house around 5 a.m. She also claimed that she would have considered this issue even and “turned the other cheek,” after she apologized for her own boundary issues with male friends. Finally, Gigi accuses Brianna of crossing professional boundaries and inserting herself in their relationship.
Internet Reaction And Kai Cenat’s Silence
The growing internet rumor about Kai Cenat began as soon as the accusations surfaced. Kai became a trending topic on both Twitter and Instagram, as his followers began debating the legitimacy of Gigi’s messages and Brianna’s posts.
On the other hand, many streamers and commentators also weighed in on the matter, like DJ Akademiks, who reported that rapper NBA YoungBoy was trying to reach out to Kai to clear up any confusion but had not received a response; don’t believe everything you see.
