Livestreaming sensation Sketch, who only last December had 33,000 followers on Twitch but has accumulated a staggering 1.1 million today, has confirmed that the sexually explicit images of him with another man are real.
The images appeared on social media over the weekend, without fans being sure if it was him or not, but Sketch has now confirmed they’re real.

I f***** up. I won’t do it again,’ Sketch told his fans. ‘But on a real note, I’ve been living with the threat of that coming out for like two years,’ he said, adding: ‘Started social media, just kind of ****ing around, had that in my past.
I’ll tell you what, weight lifted of my shoulders. God is good. All the time.
’ He said it was ‘a dark time’ in his life, but explained that others saved him, as he started to tear up. ‘I’ll be honest, plan A was, and I’ll say it candidly, was probably call it quits if this ever came out, but some people saved me. Shoutout [FaZe] Banks, shoutou.
