Jake Paul’s ex-girlfriend Erika Costell plans collaboration with rival KSI

While the rivalry between controversial YouTubers Logan Paul and KSI is well-known, it seems that the UK-based YouTuber has cropped up another rivalry, in the process – Jake Paul, Logan’s younger brother, also has beef with KSI, which could take a drastic turn in the near future.

YouTuber, model, and music artist Erika Costell parted ways with Jake Paul in November 2018, following the release of Shane Dawson’s documentary series “The Mind of Jake Paul.”

While Paul obviously wasn’t over their relationship in the months that followed (hello, his ‘I’m Single’ music video), he has since found romance with YouTuber Tana Mongeau – but a new development might stir some complicated feelings in the Team 10 founder.

Costell posted a Tweet on June 17 asking if any UK-based YouTubers wanted to make a collaborative video with her, ahead of her trip across the pond.

In a surprising turn of events, KSI responded to her request, simply replying with, “I’m down.”

Costell seemed to be up for the idea, as well, writing, “Lowkey, same,” in response.

While a collaboration between these two might hint at some forthcoming dirt on Jake Paul, it wouldn’t be the first time fans have speculated that both KSI and Costell were involved, in some way; in fact, shortly after her split with Jake in November, fans noticed that KSI had followed the model on Instagram, prompting a slew of rumors that the two were secretly dating.

KSI even took shots at Jake Paul following their breakup, claiming that he’d “gotten bored” of Costell

“Imagine being in a relationship with that kid,” KSI said of the matter during an episode of the ‘What’s Good?’ podcast.

Jake and KSI have since cropped up a fierce feud between them, with the two exchanging shots on Twitter and even arranging a boxing match, following KSI’s upcoming rematch against Logan Paul in November 2019.

This latest development follows KSI’s spat with Logan Paul and Mike Majlak over Twitter, after accusing the pair of being disorganized in planning for their rematch.

While the fight is slated for November, no exact date nor venue have yet been announced for the bout as of June 18.
