Their Twitter and Instagram accounts unfollowed Fulmer. The news came hours after photos on Reddit allegedly showed Fulmer kissing his colleague Alexandria Herring in a New York City bar. Fulmer, along with Eugene Lee Yang, Zach Kornfeld, and Keith Habersberger, created the Try Guys while working as BuzzFeed video producers in 2014, before moving on to establish their own channel in 2019, under 2nd Try LLC — “creating an independent digital production company, pants optional.” (Full disclosure: BuzzFeed Inc. has a financial stake in 2nd Try LLC.) With over 7.8 million subscribers on their independent platform, the quartet became known for zany, test drive–style videos that regularly feature members of their crew — editor YB Chang, video producer Herring, and podcast producer Miles Bonsignore, among others. Videos such as “The Try Guys Cook Dumplings Without a Recipe” and “Keith Eats Everything at Taco Bell” have amassed tens of millions of views. YouTube / Via youtube.com On Monday, now-deleted Reddit user hamilton390 posted screenshotted videos of a couple they claimed were Fulmer and Herring kissing in Niagara, a bar in NYC’s East Village. “they werent even trying to be private,” hamilton390 wrote. “the entire time they were making out.” Twitter confirmed that “Try Guys” was the top trending topic on the platform on Tuesday. snack wrap stan @onvergeofcrying The most ironic part of the Ned Fulmer/Try Guys drama is that someone at Buzzfeed is going to write an article about this. 12:57 PM - 27 Sep 2022 Reply Retweet Favorite Twitter: @onvergeofcrying Another person on Reddit said they had seen Fulmer and Herring attending a Harry Styles concert together on Sept. 1. In recent weeks, fans on social media had noticed that Fulmer had been left out of the group’s latest videos and cut out from the Try Guys theme song sequence. After the Reddit post, Herring’s fiancé Will Thayer turned his Instagram private. Fulmer and Herring have since unfollowed each other on social media. Chang, the Try Guys video editor, has also unfollowed both of them and shared the announcement of Fulmer’s departure on her Instagram story. “I know things are crazy right now but thank you for your support,” she said. Herring, Chang, and Fulmer did not return BuzzFeed News’ request for comment. Members of the Try Guys also did not return requests for comment. katherine pierce sympathizer @TeeNotHereRN the try guys try adultery 06:00 AM - 27 Sep 2022 Reply Retweet Favorite Twitter: @TeeNotHereRN Fulmer has long dedicated content to his marriage.
