Kick streamer Adin Ross has been MIA for weeks after announcing he was going in for surgery, leaving fans — and even Andrew Tate — concerned for his health.
On June 8, he published a tweet saying he was “about to undergo surgery.” While he didn’t say what the procedure was for, he promised to keep fans “updated” — but he was completely silent until July 6.
Hey guys about to undergo surgery very soon , I’ll keep everyone updated. I love you guys ❤️
During this time, fans became worried about their favorite streamer, and even the likes ofAndrew Tateclaimed he was concerned for his health.
“I’m worried about him,” Tate admitted on a July 7 episode of the ‘ThreadGuy’ podcast. “He went to the hospital, I heard. …I don’t know where he’s gone. I’ve actually messaged him a few times and I don’t know where he’s gone.”
Despite his concerns for Ross, he went on to criticize the 23-year-old streamer for how he’s handled his fame and fortune at his relatively young age.
“I like Adin,” Tate continued. “But he’s a perfect example of why you can’t give people money early. He’s a kid, he doesn’t do any real work. He sits on streaming websites, f*cking gambling [like a] dumbass. He keeps going on and off drugs and just being an idiot.”

Although he has his criticisms toward Adin, he still says that he “cares about” the young streamer — but thinks he needs a brutal lesson to learn about “the truth” of the world.

“I pray for him and I hope the best for him, but if it was up to me — well, you know what he needs. …he needs to be grabbed by the throat, and he needs the shit kicked out of him. I care about Adin. I would happily kick the living f*ck out of him so that he learns the truth about the world.”
Adin himself has confirmed thathe will return to streaming “any second”now, saying he’s had a “good mental break” away from the internet over the last month.
