Many of Pokimane’s fans are constantly wondering about her relationship status. Without a clear answer, fans are still questioning if she is single or dating. However, Poki is often tight-lipped about her private life.
Imane ‘Pokimane‘ Anys has millions of followers across Twitch and other social media platforms. In fact, she is Twitch’s most-followed female streamer.
Considering that she’s got so many fans, it’s expected that some of these loyal viewers might be curious about her personal life – in particular, her romantic prospects. However, she has never confirmed nor denied any dating rumors throughout her career.
Even though some of her fans are constantly speculating that she might be dating someone on the down-low, or others ‘shipping’ her with other streamers, Pokimane continues to keep her love life close to the chest.
Is Pokimane single?
As of the most recent update from Pokimane, it would appear that the Twitch star is currently single.
However, this update was made some time ago. Imane tweeted in 2021, “single btw,” clearing out any rumors that were revolving around her dating life. She also explained that she is not looking for a partner and is tired of answering the same question from fans over and over again.
not looking ❤️ just tired of seeing the same question/assumption over n over lol

As Pokimane has made it clear over the years that she isn’t keen on talking about her love life publicly, we can’t say for certain that she’s single or taken at the time of writing this article.
Why Pokimane never addresses dating rumors
In a tell-all YouTube video, published on January 19th, 2023, Pokimane addressed some assumptions that fans had about her – and why she won’t open up about any questions regarding who she is or isn’t dating.
“People have wrongfully assumed that I’ve either dated or been involved with people that I just haven’t,” she said. “Like flat out, I just haven’t. But also, people kind of assume that with every single guy I come into contact with, which is annoying.”
“The reason I never address those things — two parts. One: If you are so adamant about not being involved with someone, my concern was that it’s gonna sound so rude if you’re like, ‘No, I’m definitely not dating this person! Yuck!’ You know? I’m always worried about making the guy feel bad.”

Another one of her reasons was that if she began “clarifying certain assumptions” about her and other people, “it kind of narrows down who I might see or might not. So, you’ll never know because I will never confirm or deny anything.”
This is nothing new; the streamer also addressed the matter back in 2019, saying in a video, “I’m sure you’ve seen a lot of couples out there who make their relationship public. …when they break up, they have to make that public, too. I don’t know if I wanna go through that, know what I’m saying?”

Who is Kevin? Fans convinced Pokimane is dating mystery guy
Although Pokimane remains staunchly tight-lipped about her dating life, that hasn’t stopped some fans from pairing her with a guy who’s been seen on her streams from time to time.
In March of 2023, the streamer riled up some speculation about her relationship status after she described her plus-one for the Streamer Awards as a “handsome man.”
This comment about the random guy made fans wonder if she was talking about her partner. Fans thought it might have been ‘Kevin,’ a guy the streamer introduced back in 2021.
Kevin has been on-and-off Poki’s broadcast for quite some time, causing hopeful fans to pair the two together romantically. “I think/hope Kevin and Poki are dating – just imagine how pretty their children would be,” one fan wrote in a comment on Poki’s TikTok account.
Despite all the shipping, unfortunately for her most curious fans, they will likely never hear Pokimane confirm or deny anything about her relationship status… but she has been open about her career choices, most recently leaving OfflineTV and denying she’d ever join Kick over Twitch.
