Former BuzzFeed and YouTube star Ned Fulmer posted screenshots of his own Feeld dating profile on Feb. 20.
The 38-year-old content creator is known for being a founding member of the Try Guys, a four-piece made of creators who originated working for the pop culture news source, BuzzFeed. The channel has evolved over time, from challenges and cooking competitions, to a full-fledged company that now boasts a full cast list and a subscription streaming service.
Fulmer took to his profile on X to reveal his adventures in the dating scene, posting“[a]pparently somebody doxxed my @feeldCo profile. Cool. Saves me $29.99 a month.”
He then invited the internet to roast his Feeld profile, a dating app marketed towards the open-minded, polyamorous and sexually curious. After posting the link to his profile, Fulmer also included screenshots and ratings for each of his displayed photos.
Although Fulmer invited his audience to poke fun at his adventures, most were more curious to know why he would leak this kind of personal information willingly.
Photos on his profile ranged from shirtless pics, to past Halloween costumes and vacation photos. While some internet users call this posting spree a “crash out,” Fulmer does not seem to mind, even inviting users to follow him “for more divorced dad unhinged energy.”
The Try Guys channel was aimed at a mostly young adult fanbase, with the goal of members Zach Kornfeld, Eugene Lee Yang, Keith Habersberger and Fulmer being to “try everything.”
Fulmer was fired in 2022 for having an affair with producer Alexandria Herring, one of the company’s employees.
Fulmer’s departure in September 2022 led to his edited removal in a string of Try Guys videos that were already starting to take a different route, as well as his eventual temporary disappearance from social media spotlight.
The cheating scandal rocked the internet for weeks as more details were revealed, while the company’s official statement was also mocked on “Saturday Night Live.”
Much was quiet up until September 2025, three years after the original scandal, when it was announced that Fulmer and his wife Ariel, who also frequently appeared on the channel, would be separating and beginning to focus on their co-parenting journey.
The two were married for several years, and share two children, aged seven and five. Ned’s identity as one of the Try Guys was being the “wife guy” who constantly mentioned Ariel, so the scandal and eventual marital fallout came out of left field for fans.
Around the same time as the couple’s split, Fulmer started his own podcast, titled “Rock Bottom.” The podcast, which has 15 episodes so far and a 3.6/5 rating on Apple Podcasts, aims to invite guests to talk about their lowest life moments. In fact, the first episode consists of the newly separated couple breaking down the scandal that changed their lives.
