Twitch star Kai Cenat is caught in a new controversy after his girlfriend’s mother spoke out against him online. On November 5, 2025, Ashlee Monroe, mother of Kai’s girlfriend Gabrielle Alayah (also known as Gigi), posted an emotional video on Instagram. She reacted to her daughter’s old comments about growing up without love. Ashlee said she always cared for Gabrielle and called her daughter’s words hurtful and untrue.
Things took a bigger turn when Ashlee claimed that Kai told Gabrielle to keep their family life off the internet. Ashlee said Kai warned Gabrielle that being seen with her mother could hurt her image. The video quickly went viral and brought huge attention to the streamer’s personal life. The comments sparked debate about Kai’s influence, Gabrielle’s family relationship, and how fame can affect personal bonds.

Ashlee said Gabrielle’s words broke her heart. She said, “Seeing that video broke me… To say you went through life feeling unloved is crazy! I was there! I haven’t missed anything in that kid’s life.” Ashlee said she has always been a caring mother and told Gabrielle, “No matter what, baby, I love you.”
She also said Gabrielle told her to stay off social media after Kai got involved. According to Ashlee, her daughter said, “I think we need to keep our relationship off the internet,” and added, “Kai said…” Ashlee claimed Kai Cenat told Gabrielle he had “done his research” on her and that spending time with her mother could “ruin her reputation.” Ashlee said she couldn’t believe it and called it “ridiculous.”
In her video, Ashlee also spoke about Kai’s online behavior. She said, “All you do is sit down with women of different reputations… all you do is sit down with rappers. You never thought to sit down over a glass of water with me?” Ashlee said Gabrielle has changed since being with Kai, adding, “Ever since this has been going on, I don’t recognize her.”
The Instagram video went viral on November 5, and fans began sharing clips across TikTok, X (Twitter), and YouTube, sparking conversations about Kai’s influence and Gabrielle’s family distance.
Kai has not publicly answered Ashlee’s claims yet. However, fans recalled his earlier comments about his values. In 2023, Kai Cenat revealed he turned down a $60 million gambling deal, saying “not all money is good money.” He said he didn’t want to risk his focus or his morals for money.

Earlier in October 2025, Kai and Gabrielle were seen giving an interview while on holiday in Switzerland after his record-breaking Mafiathon on Twitch, where he hit over one million active subscribers.
But after Ashlee’s emotional post in early November, attention shifted from Kai Cenat’s achievements to his personal life. Many are now waiting for either Kai or Gabrielle to respond to the claims made by Ashlee on Instagram.
