Twitch streamer Albert ‘Sleightlymusical’ Chang has broken his silence on rumors that claim he was unfaithful to girlfriend Lily ‘LilyPichu’ Ki, admitting he believes he’s made “the worst decision of my life.”
OfflineTV fans and the internet community alike have been alight with drama surrounding LilyPichu’s relationship, after a series of subtweets from Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys and Federico “Fedmyster” Gaytan suggested Chang had cheated on Ki.
LilyPichu commented on the rumors on November 10, admitting she felt “forced to make a statement” and claiming that she still loved Chang “very much” despite feeling “heartbroken” over their recent separation.
Now, Chang has broken his silence to confirm what many already suspected: he had been “unfaithful” to girlfriend Lily, and caused their now-very public breakup.
“I made the worst decision of my life,” he admitted in a Twitlonger on November 12.
“I chose to be unfaithful to Lily, and caused her an excruciating amount of pain,” he continued. “I’m incredibly sorry for my selfish and irredeemable behavior. I betrayed her trust and love for me, and for that, I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to atone for it.”
Chang, who rose to fame on Twitch through his involvement with stream-team OfflineTV and broadcasting both magic tricks and music under the title ‘Sleightlymusical,’ also revealed that he would be stepping away from streaming indefinitely.
“I’ll be taking an indefinite hiatus from content creation to reflect and spend some time alone,” he revealed to his followers.

“I’m sorry for the people I’ve hurt in all of our communities. I’m sorry for the friends I let down at OfflineTV, and most of all I’m sorry for hurting you, Lily.”
Despite what Chang admitted to, it seems that Lilypichu really was being genuine when she admitted to still loving her ex-boyfriend, delivering what seemed to be one final online message in relation to the drama.
“Take care and be safe,” Lily replied to Chang’s post.
Take care & be safe.

While Sleightlymusical’s cheating confirmation may put to bed many of the rumors that have been swirling around the scandal over the past few days, a number of figureheads in the streaming community have already weighed in on the matter.
Chief among them was OfflineTV founder William ‘Scarra’ Li, who asked for people to not “sh*t on my friends” for how they reacted on social media.
World of Warcraft Classic star Asmongold also added his two cents on the topic before Chang dropped his statement, telling his fans that if they were interested in the “he said, she said” drama, they should “get a f*cking life.”
