The 24-year-old has come under fire ever since former Vlog Squad member Seth Francois leveled sexual assault allegations against him and Jason Nash back in February.

In a revelatory interview with Ethan and Hila Klein on the H3H3 podcast, Seth Francois alleged that David Dobrik had forced him to make out with 47-year-old Jason Nash without his consent.

The allegations have since snowballed into major criticism of David Dobrik and The Vlog Squad, with the situation only getting worse, courtesy of problematic old videos which have now surfaced online.
