Twenty-seven-year-old Felix Lengyel, also known as xQc, is a renowned streamer with a massive following of nearly twelve million on Twitch. Initially rising to fame for his professional Overwatch career, xQc shifted his focus to streaming after being released from the Overwatch League in 2018. While he now primarily streams a variety of content, it was through the Overwatch community that he formed connections with fellow streamers Fran and adeptthebest, who is more commonly referred to as Adept.xQc. While they all used to be popular Overwatch streamers, they have since moved on to different endeavors. Recent controversies involving these three individuals indicate that xQc and Fran's relationship had its challenges, potentially due to Adept's involvement. Considering the complicated history between Adept and xQc, it is not surprising that their coexistence ended in the autumn of 2022. The ongoing legal battles have sparked speculations about hidden details in their story.
xQc Admitted to Cheating on Fran
xQc and Fran made their relationship official in early June 2023, but there were still unresolved feelings from xQc's previous relationship with Adept. During a stream that month, xQc mentioned both women, saying, "It’s been really tough. I have a new girlfriend, and it's been like a living nightmare." While xQc's fans were not yet aware that Fran was his new girlfriend, it was clear that he and Adept were not getting back together. Adept claimed they had been married for three years under common-law marriage, but xQc denied this. In January, Adept even showed up outside xQc's house, accusing him of changing their shared passwords and violating the law. xQc denied the marriage and eventually won the court case in May. Adept had requested $500,000 and monthly payments from xQc, but the court ruled in xQc's favor.
On June 3, Fran publicly announced her relationship with xQc by posting a photo of them kissing on Instagram. Therefore, the unexpected breakup in August surprised many, as there were rumors that xQc and Fran might be engaged. Some speculated that Adept played a role in the breakup because xQc mentioned in July that she had shown up at his house unannounced. During a stream on August 12, xQc stated that one reason for the breakup was his former roommate, explaining that he didn't want someone else to suffer because of his interactions with Poke.
On August 13, Fran went live to address the questions and concerns of her followers. She even used drawings to illustrate the timeline of events. While Adept had previously accused xQc of physical abuse, Fran clarified that she had never experienced any form of abuse or sexual assault from him. However, Fran did claim that xQc had cheated on her, a statement xQc admitted to when his audience expressed doubts. During a Discord call, xQc explicitly confirmed the infidelity, and it was hinted that it might have involved Adept. This revelation was surprising for some, considering xQc's strong stand against cheating. The exact timeline of the cheating has not been confirmed.
Contrary to earlier reports, it appears that the reunion of Twitch streamers xQc and Adept is unlikely to happen. Despite their history of breaking up and reconciling multiple times, xQc took to Twitter on August 14 to dismiss the circulating rumors as entirely false. He also took responsibility for his actions and subtly suggested that Adept's motives may have been influenced by his wealth. The extent of their communication moving forward remains uncertain.
