Valkyrae has addressed the ongoing controversy surrounding fellow streamer Sykkuno, stating she was unaware of his alleged long-term relationship amid accusations of serial cheating.

The response comes after claims surfaced online, prompting widespread discussion across the streaming community.

Thomas, known online as Sykkuno, has faced mounting scrutiny following allegations shared by VTuber HemomalVT, who accused him of maintaining multiple overlapping relationships while concealing a long-term partner. The claims, which include screenshots and alleged evidence, remain unverified, and Sykkuno has not issued a public statement.

Speaking during a recent livestream, Valkyrae confirmed she had privately discussed the situation with him. She said, "I did talk to Sykkuno... He did tell me everything... I should not have tweeted that I was disappointed... because it just gave a lot of ammo to a lot of angry people."

Despite expressing regret over her earlier public reaction, she did not conceal her disappointment. She added that she had communicated her feelings directly to him and acknowledged her own past experiences, saying, "I have been with a lot of my friends in the past, and I'm sure I've also been disappointing.”

Valkyrae also addressed the allegations more directly, stating, "He's a cheater... we talked, he's gonna figure things out... I hope for the best and I'm so sorry to all of those involved... Cheating is bad, a selfish act. It hurts ppl. I think it's a normal thing to be disappointed... he really needs to talk to the ppl that were involved."

A key point of her response was her claim that she did not know about any girlfriend. She said, "No, I did not know he had a girlfriend, which led to my tweet... because I thought my tweet was going to make it clear that I didn't know... but apparently me tweeting that caused a lot of distress."

The controversy has reignited earlier allegations from 2020, though those claims were largely dismissed at the time. With no response yet from Sykkuno, the situation continues to develop.
