Anthony Padilla has been under constant observation ever since the rise of Smosh, and as most people are aware, fame comes with a lot of judgment. Padilla has dated and been engaged with multiple partners over the years. He was engaged to Kalel Cullen from 2013 to 2014. The reason behind the messy breakup was not completely disclosed to the internet.
He was in a relationship with Kristina Carrillo-Bucaram in 2015, then with Miel Bredouw from 2015 to 2019. He started dating Mykie in 2019. Since both Anthony and Mykie belong to the same industry, it isn’t too farfetched to assume that the two met at events frequently, and things progressed from there on.
