The announcement highlighted that TwoSet Violin’s journey, spanning 11 years, has officially come to an end. They appeared to have removed their content from both YouTube and Instagram. In their Instagram message, TwoSet Violin expressed:
“This will be the last piece of content we post as TwoSet Violin. It’s been a wild ride with you all for the last 11 years. We’ve all grown up together and it’s kinda surreal that we’re ending our chapter here. Thank you for all the laughs, the genuine encounters in real life, and all the special moments we’ve had with you online and offline. Much love, Brett and Eddy.”
Following this post, it quickly spread across social media, creating a stir in their fanbase. Many speculated about a potential breakup and pondered whether this update marked their final farewell to fans. One user on X shared their sentiments:
“SO YOU REALLY DID MEAN GOODBYE???”
As the fandom deliberated over the situation, there was widespread confusion online regarding the abrupt nature of the speculated breakup.
“They broke up as a couple, end of an era,”said one fan.
“Nah, what is this? I hope it’s just one of their pranks or a rebranding because I miss all of their old videos. I’m so sad,”another fan commented.
“WHY ALL OF A SUDDEN?? THAT’S MY QUESTION?? THEY POSTED A TWOSET TALKS 2 HOURS AGO TOO?? WHAT IS GOING ON,”one inquired.
“GUYS, CALM DOWN! I SAW A REPLY ON THE YT COMMUNITY POST; the wording is very specific, saying ‘This will be the last piece of content we post as /TwoSet Violin./’ So it will most likely be a rebrand. As for the videos being made private, they…”one fan theorized.
Numerous fans suggested that the duo might be evolving their brand or working on something new. Meanwhile, others conveyed their sadness, sensing that something was amiss.
“I suspect they are rebranding as TwoSet Academy. The name was referenced in their latest video, and they have a new logo associated with it. They also created a website that currently contains no content aside from an interest form,”noted one user.
“WHAT THE F**K? I have been a fan for years. Why is everything disappearing? PLEASE?? WHAT HAPPENED?? BRETT AND EDDY, NOOO! I feel like I’m a child of two divorces now,”shared another user.
“I’M GENUINELY FREAKING OUT! I’ve been a fan for 7 to 8 years. Seeing them suddenly disappear is so alarming! I hope everything is okay?? AIIII,”lamented a supporter.
“Most of their videos are gone too! They are free to do whatever they want with their lives, and I wish them well, but I’m really curious about what’s happening/why they are doing this. I just hope they’re okay,”another user commented.
