YouTuber Landon Nickerson is under heavy fire after allegations emerged that he was unfaithful to his pregnant fiancée, popular social media figure The Wizard Liz—real name Liz Wizard—while she was four months along in her pregnancy.
The controversy ignited after Liz shared a heartfelt Instagram story on May 27, 2025, where she confirmed the end of their engagement.
“He looked like the most loyal man on earth. but turns out man really are that simple. you can have the MOST amazing woman alive and still call your 4 months pregnant wife a ‘fake’ on snapchat. god we’re living in a world where even the wizardliz gets cheated on,” she wrote.
According to Liz, Nickerson had been using a hidden Snapchat account to message another woman, who eventually reached out to one of Liz’s friends and provided proof of the exchanges.
Liz revealed that just days before the truth came out, Nickerson had been in London with her, professing his love. “He made a whole book about how much he loves me,” she said.
Despite knowing the damage those “5~10 minutes” of texting could cause, he still chose to message “somebody that he doesn’t gaf about.” Liz expressed disbelief that even after creating a love book for her, Nickerson would still go on to betray her. As she put it, it’s ironic that he’s now “bragging about losing his pregnant wife who gave him a happy relationship.”
Nickerson later addressed the situation on his Instagram Stories, admitting to sending inappropriate messages but minimizing the incident. “It was a few minutes of texting. That’s it,” he claimed, while also stating he regretted the decision.
Liz, deeply hurt, shared how the betrayal caught her off guard. She thanked the woman who came forward and revealed her intention to sell her $100,000 engagement ring, promising to donate the money to help single mothers. Her words struck a chord online, sparking an outpouring of empathy and praise.
Hashtags like #WizardLiz and #LandonNickerson quickly began trending on platforms like TikTok and X, with many users criticizing Nickerson’s actions and calling the situation a “horror story.” Others applauded Liz for her courage and honesty in telling her story.
The situation has fueled broader online discussions about infidelity, emotional abuse, and how women are treated in highly visible relationships.
