Thea, a writer and Twitch streamer, opened up about the immense amount of scrutiny that she has gotten due to the romance during a recent appearance on the Wide Awake podcast, and she admitted that many of her boyfriend’s supporters have accused her of being a ‘gold digger’ and worry that she’s going to hurt him in the end.

‘But I have to go through the tests because like, I don’t really get along with women if they don’t love learning, if they’re not obsessive, and if they don’t have a hobby.
‘There are just certain things where if you have these traits. But we get along really well.’
Mr. Beast said he ‘put her through the wringer,’ but was attracted to the fact that she was a writer.
‘Then we started talking, and I just tried to get a feel,’ he continued. ‘I started asking questions.
‘And then she was like, “I’m an author.” And I was like, “F**k, yeah.” She likes learning, and she has multiple degrees.
‘You can tell she likes learning, she’s about to get a neuroscience degree just for fun, not even to get a job.
‘And so she was like, checking all the boxes, and I have like, these 10 things … if I meet a girl that’s like, beautiful, and they have these 10 traits, like, we’re gonna be literally best friends, right? She checked every single one of them.’

The couple first went public with their relationship in March, when she shared a snap of them together to her Instagram, which she captioned, ‘Mr. Beast and Beasty,’ alongside a heart.
They made their red carpet debut in April, when they attended the Kids’ Choice Awards in Los Angeles.
They have also jetted off to New York City, Las Vegas, and the Maldives together.
Thea is a published author, who released her first novel, called The Marked Children, back in August.
‘Sixteen-year-old John’s life changes when he discovers a sinister black symbol on his arm,’ a description of the book reads.
‘Little does he know that thousands of children across the world woke up with similar marks, but went missing shortly thereafter.
‘It’s like they disappeared from the face of the Earth. Where did they go? Unfortunately, John is about to find out.’
Mr. Beast – who is the most followed individual on YouTube and fourth most followed channel on the platform – was previously linked to fellow influencer Maddy Spidell, whom he dated for three years before they split in early 2022.
