Cody Ko releases statement on Tana Mongeau allegations amid losing over 300k subscribers
He is stepping down from his role at TMG studios
Since the allegations against Cody Ko from Tana Mongeau have come to light regarding the two having a sexual relationship when he was 25 and she was 17, fans have been waiting for him to speak out. He has now broken his silence in a joint statement with business partner Noel Miller, and has spoken out about his future at their company TMG Studios.
TMG Studios was set up by Noel Miller and Cody Ko in 2021 and features their hugely successful podcast alongside other creators who have their own podcasts under their network.
The statement reads: “As we enter into this next phase of the studio, we wanted to let you know that Cody will not be involved in the day-to-day operations at TMG Studios,” the post said. “What has transpired over the past few weeks is a personal issue for him, and Cody wants to remove any effect this is having on your professional and personal lives and the work you and our other hosts have done to make TMG Studios so successful.”
Since Tana Mongeau publicly spoke out about the allegations, Cody Ko has lost over 300k subscribers on his YouTube channel. Fellow YouTube channel, Cut, known for their The Button videos has deleted all videos containing Cody Ko who they previously collaborated with.
Tana Mongeau previously claimed on her Cancelled podcast that she had a sexual relationship with Cody Ko when he was 25 and she was 17. It came out during a discussion on which of her sexual partners had “the smallest d*ck”, to which Tana said “Cody Ko… I can say that, I was literally 17.” Tana brought it up again on the podcast saying “This isn’t just some crazy tea. I hooked up with Cody Ko when I was 17 and he was 25. Yeah it happened. At 25 now … I would never do anything like that so I’m like, ‘What the f*ck was wrong with you?’”
The Tab has reached out to Cody Ko and TMG Studios for comment.
