Social media has erupted following the emotional and public breakup between YouTuber Landon Nickerson and influencer The Wizard Liz—real name Liz Wizard—amid shocking allegations of infidelity during her pregnancy.
On May 27, 2025, Liz took to Instagram to confirm the end of their engagement, revealing that Nickerson had cheated while she was four months pregnant. The betrayal, she explained, came to light after a woman—who had been secretly communicating with Nickerson—reached out to one of Liz’s friends and provided evidence of the inappropriate messages.
“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,” Liz shared in her Instagram story.
According to Liz, Nickerson had a hidden Snapchat account that he used to speak to another woman. Just days before she found out, Nickerson had been with her in London, expressing his devotion. “He made a whole book about how much he loves me,” she wrote. Despite knowing the risk, he still chose to send texts to “somebody that he doesn’t gaf about.”
In a tone-deaf response, Nickerson later admitted via Instagram Stories that he had sent inappropriate messages, but attempted to downplay the situation: “It was a few minutes of texting. That’s it.” He acknowledged it was a mistake and expressed regret, but the damage was already done.
Liz, heartbroken but empowered, announced her next step: “I’m going to sell my engagement ring (around a 100k) and donate the money to single moms. More power to women. Amen.” The bold statement drew widespread admiration from fans and followers, who praised her generosity and strength during such a painful time.
The breakup quickly became a trending topic across social platforms like TikTok and X, with hashtags such as #WizardLiz and #LandonNickerson sparking conversations about loyalty, emotional manipulation, and the treatment of women in public relationships. Many users called the situation a “horror story,” while others pointed to Liz’s resilience as an inspiration.
By turning her heartbreak into a gesture of empowerment, The Wizard Liz is not only reclaiming her narrative, but also using her platform to uplift others—particularly single mothers who, like her, may find themselves starting over.
