In his latest YouTube upload, Mizkif revealed the changes in his life since his hiatus from Twitch. “I’ve been dealing with my parents the last few days. And they have been trying to support me. I did gain some muscle mass and that’s cool. I’ve been working out every single day. That’s all I’ve really been doing,” he said.
The Twitch star also explained to viewers that Maya is in the process of moving out of his house. “Maya is moving out. To make it clear to everybody, yes, she is moving out. I know a lot of people are speculating for some reason and saying Maya is going to stay in my home. That’s just not happening. She’s moving out in the next few days.”
He then announced when he would likely make his return to Twitch. “I really do want to go back to streaming, badly. But I can’t yet. Especially these next few days with Maya moving out. It’s just going to be a lot of s**t for both of us to deal with and I’m not in the mood to stream. I really have no idea when I’m going to be live, but it will not be until at least October 1st.”
