According to Miz and Maya, their breakup was mutual and amicable, and they noted that they still “care about each other so much.” Following their split, the two say that they will remain friends, but Miz and Maya will both be taking some time away from the platform to focus on themselves.

Fans reacted to Miz and Maya’s breakup on social media.

Longtime fans of Miz and Maya were devastated to learn of the couple’s breakup. While they continued to rise in popularity as many Twitch users' #CouplesGoals, there were few signs that their relationship was on the rocks.

“Despite me not liking Miz too much, it is pretty sad cause Maya seemed to bring out his redeeming qualities and they seemed healthy. I hope what Miz is saying is true and that it wasn’t a breakup due to something negative,” one user wrote on Twitter.

Although their breakup comes as a surprise to many of their subscribers, others claim that they saw it coming. In early August 2021, Twitch streamers xQc and Adept called it quits following an announcement by TinaKitten and Jummy, who went their separate ways in March 2021.

Among the many Twitch couples that we’ve watched rise to fame over the last decade, Miz and Maya and their friends Nick and Malena seemed to be the last ones standing. But rumors, although unconfirmed, allege that Nick and Malena may be in the midst of a breakup as well.
