Recently YouTubers Ivan and Emilio Martinez decided to leave Team 10. Team 10 is a management company and social media incubator for rising digital stars that was co-founded by fellow YouTuber, Jake Paul. The Martinez brothers claimed one of the reasons they were leaving was due to Paul bullying them. Paul allegedly would manipulate them into doing things they did not want to and made them a subject of racial abuse.

No Description

Team 10 responded saying they were shocked and the twins led no one to believe anything was wrong. They claimed that if they had, their concerns would have been taken care of immediately. Read their response here. Paul too has since responded to these claims. In a two-part video on Twitter Paul addresses the issue.

““Let me start off by saying, first of all, I am so sorry for the Martinez twins. No one should ever feel bullied, and I truly apologize for not doing a better job as a leader and a friend,” he says in the videos.

Many aren’t impressed by Paul video saying it doesn’t make any sense and his acting was very poor. This has not been the first time that he has been accused of bullying. In the past month, several other social stars spoke out about this bullying.
