Personal life

Preston was born in Texas, United States. He didn't get the chance to meet his biological father, as his biological mother and his adoptive father married when he was three months old. But he's stated that he has no desire to meet his biological father, as his adoptive father has shown him just as much love as his biological children.

He grew up with four brothers and one sister: David, Daka, Keeley, Caleb, and Joshua. Preston's profession inspired a couple of his siblings, Keeley and Caleb, as well as his father to create their own YouTube Channels. Overall, he has an incredibly close and heartwarming relationship with his family.

Preston became engaged to Brianna Barnhart in October 2017. They were later married in late May 2018.
