### Domestic abuse allegations

On March 12, 2024, Beard's former girlfriend of five years took to the subreddit r/TeamSESH on Reddit to accuse him of sexual assault, animal abuse, domestic violence, as well as his excessive usage of the drugs MDMA, cocaine, and lean. Beard's ex, who goes by u/Gianyasami on the platform, claims that the two of them had a serious relationship for five years starting in September 2018, which took a turn for the worse in December 2018. One of his former friends and designers, who goes by the username u/Anglicfilths, later came forward to back up her claims.
