"PUBG" players come to Twitch to watch their favorite streamers play games in more entertaining ways. However, streamers sometimes reveal much more than just their reactions to a game. This much happened with popular "PUBG" streamer Dr DisRespect, who revealed his infidelity on the platform and has since taken a hiatus to focus on his family, 

On the live clip, "PUBG" fan-favorite streamer DrDisrespect admitted to having cheated on his wife. "I have a beautiful family, and a wife, and a kid," said DrDisrespect with a sobbing tone. "And I want to be transparent that I've been unfaithful. I apologize to you guys, and my sponsors, and Twitch. This is not who I am, this is not what I represent. That it."

He also mentioned that he will be taking a break from streaming, presumably to fix whatever problem he has with his family. For fans to see a totally different DrDisrespect on his stream shocked a lot of his fans. He usually has this 90's over-the-top macho personality on his stream, screaming catchphrases whenever he gets killed or kills someone in the game.

Several Reddit posts were made discussing the incident. Some took it lightly, making jokes out of it and assuring other fans that he will do just fine when he gets back. Others were more worried about his situation and did not exactly know how to feel about his live confession.

According to PC Gamer, a former designer of Sledgehammer Games listed Dr DisRespect as the 16th most popular stream. This is unsurprising as he does bring in nearly a million and a half followers to his stream. When voting was still on for the recently concluded The Game Awards, he was voted as the recipient of the "Trending Game Award".

Dr DisRespect's stream has since then been offline and on sub-mode.
