Catherine Paiz reveals Austin McBroom’s infidelity in new book, says she “had been living inside a lie”
Influencer and YouTube personality Catherine Paiz is breaking her silence on her past relationship with Austin McBroom, revealing deeply personal details in her new memoir.
In a candid chapter, Paiz writes about the emotional moment she discovered McBroom had been unfaithful, saying, “It wasn’t just the betrayal. It was the realization that I had been living inside a lie.”
The book, which dives into her experiences as one-half of the social media power couple behind The ACE Family, offers a behind-the-scenes look at the emotional toll of fame, online pressure, and personal heartbreak. Paiz describes the moment she learned about the cheating as a turning point—not just in her marriage, but in her understanding of her entire reality.
The memoir explores themes of trust, identity, and self-worth, and marks the first time Paiz has publicly shared the depth of her personal struggles. The revelations come after years of speculation and tabloid headlines about the status of her relationship with McBroom, who has faced numerous controversies over the years.
