Adam22 and wife Lena the Plug have split two months after the adult film star claimed that a divorce filing earlier this summer was a hoax.
“I would like to formally announce that my wife and I are officially separated,” Adam, 42, said on his “No Jumper” podcast on Monday, September 7. “We have ran into some issues and at this time, we have decided to put our relationship on ice for a period of time.”
The YouTuber (real name Adam John Grandmaison) continued, “Will we end up back together? There is certainly a possibility.”
Adam admitted that he and Lena, 35, whose real name is Lena Nersesian, began experiencing relationship problems shortly after they welcomed daughter Parker in November 2020. (The social media personalities began dating in 2016 and tied the knot in May 2023.)
“Over the last couple of years, in particular, since we had our child, that, I think my extremely one-sided lifestyle of doing podcasts all day every day and not really making myself a terribly active participant in the family life is probably like the biggest factor,” he explained. “We had a child, and then she kind of just took on like all of the responsibilities of being the parent.”
Adam recalled, “At one point, she said, ‘You know, you feel like your responsibility in this relationship is to go to work and come back,’ and I couldn’t even say anything.”
Adam said he “realized” he needs “more balance” in his life if he and his estranged wife “are ever” going to get back together.
“But we’ve been together for 10, 11 years. I felt like I was doing enough because I wasn’t cheating, doing drinks, drinking,” he concluded.
Adam also confirmed the separation in a statement shared via X on Monday.

“I hope we are able to work it out but for the time being we are taking a break,” he wrote. “We will continue to shoot adult content together for the time being. Thank you for your respect for our privacy during this difficult time.”
Back in June, the pair made headlines when Lena seemingly filed for divorce from Adam on her 35th birthday. The documents requested custody of their daughter and a split of roughly $730,000 in assets. However, Lena later insisted that she did not file any divorce paperwork and was the victim of identity theft.
“Last month, I went to check my mail and I had all of this rejected paperwork from a courthouse. Somebody has been trying to file for divorce on my behalf,” she alleged in a social media video in July. “[Someone] has all this information and they attached a check for $435. I look at the name of the check and I start to freak out a little bit because I remember the name … The name of the check matches the name that police gave me when they arrived at my house two different times doing a wellness check [when] somebody called and claimed I was being abused by my husband.”
She continued, “I’m not divorcing at all. I love my husband. We’ve been together for 10 years. I know that all of you are plotting on our downfall but it’s not happening. That day has not come. I found out I was getting divorced when you guys found out I was getting divorced. This is such a weird situation. Honestly, if it didn’t happen to me, I wouldn’t believe it.”
