James Mack has pushed back against Reggie's allegations of childhood sexual abuse, claiming his younger brother willingly participated in their past encounters. In a conversation with another streamer, Mack kept saying Reggie's account didn't match what happened. He had earlier claimed the encounters went on for around three years and that Reggie sometimes initiated them. Reggie named his brother publicly during a September livestream and accused him of taking advantage of him when he was young. Their mother has also spoken out, backing Reggie's account and laying out what she did after she learned about the alleged abuse.

James Mack Says Reggie Was Willing and Claims Their Past Encounters Lasted Three Years

Mack's comments about Reggie's alleged participation first came out around October 18, in messages and interviews. Here's what he said:

“He was definitely with it, it happened for 3 years. He used to ask me was I ready sometimes.”

He hasn't moved off that version since. In clips going around from interviews on roughly November 5–7, he got asked about those earlier statements, and he didn't take back that characterization.

Mack also accused Reggie of exaggerating parts of the story and adding claims that made him look like a monster, and he questioned why his younger brother chose to talk about a family matter in public instead of keeping it private.

Earlier, he called the public disclosure “outrageous” and “absurd,”and said the family had already talked about the issue years before. Mack also said he was willing to speak privately with Reggie and their mother.

Reggie and His Mother Have Given a Different Account of What Happened During Their Childhood

Reggie went public with his allegations during a September 27, 2026 livestream. He named James Mack and said his older brother had taken advantage of him when he was young. He also talked about how the alleged experiences affected his understanding of his sexuality.

“My brother took advantage of me, James Mack, I'm not scared no more,” Reggie said during the broadcast.

Their mother has publicly sided with Reggie. By her account, she learned about the alleged abuse around November 27, 2015, then contacted police and set up therapy and help for both sons. She also disputed parts of what Mack explained later.

Mack, for his part, has suggested Reggie and their mother are discussing the allegations in public for financial attention, pointing to a potential “YouTube cheque.”He has also said he has limited contact with their mother.

So the two brothers now tell very different stories about their past, and their mother is publicly backing Reggie's allegations.
