Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleAdam22 and Lena The Plug often hit the headlines with their personal life, an open marriage, to be specific. The couple has been together for several years, with their wedding taking place in 2023. The duo shares a kid. It was back in June 2026 when TMZ reported that Lena filed for divorce from her husband, Adam22.
Following the reports that hit the headlines, Lena and Adam dismissed them and revealed a catfish-and-identity-theft scheme that led to a fake filing and a viral moment, with the documents being out there. Later, it was revealed that Lena filed docs to dismiss the case, and it was done by August 26, 2026. However, within a few weeks, on September 7, 2026, Adam22 announced that he had decided to separate from Lena The Plug.
The news came as a shock, given that Lena and Adam22 have always been each other's supporters, no matter how much people ridiculed their relationship, given the fact that it was an open marriage. Amid Adam22 announcing his separation, let's look at another viral moment from Mid-August (2026), when the American podcaster felt that his wife 'went a little over the line'.
It was in August 2026, when Lena The Plug sparked chatter while appearing on Drake’s 20-vs-1 dating show. While she was not the winner, she was one of the three top contestants and reportedly won USD 25K along with a trip. Lena's appearance on the show became a massive topic of discussion, as she was seen giving Drake an extended hug. Not only that, when it was pointed out that she was married, Lena took off her wedding ring and threw it away.
The moment grabbed significant attention on social media. Drake was presented with a 'Hall Pass', which was signed by Lena's husband, Adam22. According to the Hall Pass, Lena was given full approval 'to enjoy a guilt-free encounter with Drake. No questions. No jealousy. Just respect.' Even though Lena and Adam22's open marriage is no secret to others, for her to throw the wedding ring was something that was not well approved by netizens, and even Adam22 felt that Lena 'went a little over the line'.
Adam22, in an interview with TMZ, said that he and Lena discussed things beforehand, but seeing her pull off the wedding ring made him feel something. He could be quoted as saying:
“She told me a couple of things, like, we discussed the permission slip beforehand. So that was not a surprise. But then, when she threw the ring, I don’t know. I really did feel something for a moment there, like, damn. You really had to take a dump on our relationship right there?”
Adam22, in the same interview, said that they would converse about what happened, but he would not hold it against his wife. He further explained why it pinched him. According to Adam22, that ring means a lot to him, and he bought it when money was not coming easily. Adam22 mentioned that his wife wanted to have a viral moment, and that worked. However, he wanted her to make it up to him in private. He could be quoted as saying:
“We had to have a conversation about that, but ultimately, that’s my baby. I love her, even if I felt like she went a little over the line with that move. … I bought that ring back when money was a little bit harder to come by, you know? So it means a lot to me. I get that she wanted to have her viral moment, and it worked. … There was a little bit there, where I was like, ‘You owe me a threesome or two after that one.’”
With Adam22 announcing his separation from Lena The Plug, people thought that it was due to their open relationship. However, this was not the case. Adam22 clarified that the issue in their marital life was caused by his behavior. According to him, he struggled to balance his family and work life, and Lena had to take care of their daughter, Parker, alone. While she was initially okay, things became frustrating for her.
The duo had a conversation, and Adam22 ended up telling her that his only responsibility was to go to work and return, which eventually made it harder for the couple to mend their issues. To mention, the couple is still legally married and has only separated for now.
