Coma accused Maslen of racism, misogyny, emotional abuse, and psychological manipulation during their relationship, sharing screenshots of slurs, fetishizing comments, and threats of suicide. She described him dismissing her miscarriage, calling her an “attention seeker” and the fetus “gross,” with incidents peaking in August 2025 post-tour.
