Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleEthan Klein’s cheating scandal has been in the news for the past few weeks. Following Hila Klein’s bombshell statement revealing her husband’s affair, the fashion designer also filed for divorce from him. Now, in her memoir, Hila Klein's sister-in-law, Trisha Paytas, called Ethan a troll and pointed out his pushy behavior.
For the unversed, Trisha Paytas and Ethan Klein previously hosted a podcast named Frenemies. Due to a major on-air feud between Trisha and Ethan, the podcast stopped streaming in June 2021.
Trisha Paytas is hogging the limelight for her memoir, Crying on the Kitchen Floor. According to reports, the book was officially released on November 10, 2026. In her memoir, Crying on the Kitchen Floor, Trisha recalled her first awkward encounter with the former H3 Podcast host. She revealed that after her tour ended, one of Ethan’s producers reached out to her and invited her on the podcast to discuss their alleged online feud.
However, Paytas said that she never really considered it a mutual feud. She felt that the former H3 Podcast host was mostly attacking or criticizing her online. She described the feud as 'one-sided slander.' Eventually, she agreed to go on because she wanted to play along with the online jokes and act like she was in on it. Interestingly, Paytas found Ethan much 'nicer and dorkier' than she had expected.
However, soon the encounter turned awkward for Trisha as Ethan repeatedly questioned her about a controversial YouTube video in which she claimed to be transgender. She admitted that she felt ashamed of making that video and didn't want to talk about it. Paytas alleged that she initially told the former H3 Podcast host that she hadn't made any money from it.
But Trisha admitted that she was clueless about how much she'd earned from that video. She assumed that she couldn't have earned much because the video had been online for only a week. After Ethan continued questioning her, Trisha decided to check her YouTube earnings. She downloaded the YouTube Create app and showed Ethan the payment details. That’s when she discovered that she actually made USD 8,000.
Paytas said she felt extremely embarrassed because she had just told Ethan that she hadn't made any money from it. She felt as though she had been caught lying once again. She remembered noticing a 'glimmer' in Ethan's eyes while she was embarrassed. She wondered whether he was simply nervous or secretly enjoying the situation.
Paytas described Ethan as a kindred spirit who enjoys trolling people, making jokes, and creating drama. She felt that Ethan was much crazier and more unpredictable than he showed publicly. She believed that they both share a similar kind of inner chaos.
For the uninitiated, Hila Klein took to her Instagram handle on October 23, 2026, to expose her husband, Ethan Klein’s infidelity. Sharing a bombshell statement, Hila mentioned that her husband had been having an affair over the past six months. She said that over the last few months, her husband had been feeding her a series of lies. She admitted that she could sense something was wrong.
Hila also addressed the matter to Ethan, who paid no heed. Over time, the fashion designer stopped doubting her husband and began questioning herself. Eventually, he admitted that it was just a kiss that later turned into emotional cheating. Days after sharing her statement, Hila made headlines as she filed for divorce from Ethan.
Hila listed the date of marriage as October 10, 2012, and the date of separation as October 13, 2026, suggesting she found out about Ethan's affair around the time of their 14th wedding anniversary.
