The couple has had an unstable relationship for some time now, and their publicized disagreements on-screen last year garnered significant attention in the streaming community.

The complex history of xQc and Adept
xQc and Adept have a tumultuous history, having split up in August 2021, only to reconcile by December of the same year. However, their second breakup at the beginning of September 2022 resulted in a highly publicized fallout that affected xQc's relationships with other streamers. During a livestream, they argued about their past relationship, causing viewers to criticize xQc for being tasteless and inciting harassment against Adept.
Following this incident, xQc publicly apologized to Adept, with both admitting they were too emotional during the argument. Despite the drama, they later streamed together, leading some fans to speculate if they had rekindled their romance at TwitchCon San Diego 2022. However, xQc's past statements suggest that the reasons for their breakup remain, as family issues contributed to their separation.
While the future of their relationship remains uncertain, it appears that the two are taking a step forward by supporting each other as friends, given the toll that the public debates took on their mental health.
