Know all the details of the relationship between Sonii and Valkyrae aka Rae
Streamer Sonii voiced his concerns about his ex-girlfriend, Valkyrae, after she received a voodoo doll resembling him on her PressESC podcast, describing the gesture as disturbing. Valkyrae hosted the podcast alongside her co-host, Alythuh, with both dressed as characters from DC Comics’ Teen Titans. During one segment, later shared on the official PressESC page on X, Alythuh presented Valkyrae with a box of gifts, one of which was the voodoo doll.
Twitch streamer SONII hits out at ex-girlfriend Valkyrae after video of Lisa aka Alythuh giving her his voodoo doll goes viral
I haven’t spoken to you since the day we split 3 years ago.
But this is really disturbing and warrants my first message to you @Valkyrae
All I’ve done these past few years is try to live a peaceful life without you in it.
Our relationship was toxic on both sides.. but nobody… https://t.co/fk11cvMACl

Valkyrae is yet to make a public statement about Sonii’s post on Twitter/X, though signs suggested she might be preparing to address the matter on her podcast. Mere hours after Sonii’s message, the PressESC podcast hinted at a forthcoming episode titled “Cheater and Liar,” a post Valkyrae shared on her own page. This likely points to an upcoming discussion about their relationship. Back in 2022, Sonii had hinted at sharing his side of the story but ultimately chose not to go through.
Who is streamer SONII?
Michael “SONII,” the ex-boyfriend of YouTube sensation Rachell “Valkyrae” Hofstetter, recently shared his thoughts on what he deemed a “really disturbing” incident. The situation unfolded following SONII’s reaction to a viral 37-second clip from the Press ESC podcast, which aired on October 30, 2024. During the episode, host Lisa “Alythuh” disclosed that she had crafted a voodoo doll of Valkyrae’s former partner and openly expressed her hatred for SONII.
As a co-owner of the gaming organization 100 Thieves, SONII explained that he had refrained from contacting Valkyrae since their breakup three years prior, seeking instead to live peacefully. Reflecting on their relationship, he remarked that both had experienced toxicity but emphasized that neither had engaged in cheating or physical abuse.

SONII further clarified that they had each been hurt in different ways by the relationship, expressing hope that both had found healing over time. Expressing his discomfort with the ongoing narrative, SONII noted that while he understood if her actions were an attempt to process their past, he felt that using social media to spread more hate was unexpected after so much time.
