Background
Megan Letter, known online as MeganPlays, and Leah Ashe are two of the most prominent creators within the Roblox gaming community, maintaining approximately 3.7 million and 5 million YouTube subscribers, respectively.

The couple's relationship reached a milestone in July 2024 with the birth of their daughter, Clover. However, this stability ended in 2025 when the marriage collapsed following allegations of infidelity involving Leah Ashe, leading to a divorce and a subsequent custody battle for their daughter.
