Alan Stokes

Alan Chen Stokes was born on November 23, 1996, in Shenyang, China. He and his twin brother, Alex, spent their childhood split between China and Knoxville, Tennessee, after their family relocated to the United States when they were eight years old. Of mixed Han Chinese and English descent, Alan credits their maternal grandfather, who helped raise them during summers in China, as a major influence on their work ethic and philanthropic values. 

Both brothers briefly pursued pre-med studies at a community college in California but left in 2016 to pursue a career in social media full-time. During the early days of their influencer careers, the twins lived modestly, even living out of their car while uploading short sketches to Instagram before moving primarily to YouTube.

Alan Stokes has been closely associated with fellow content creator Kathleen Hixson, who many refer to as his best friend and rumored girlfriend. While neither of them really confirmed a formal relationship, their close friendship and frequent collaborations sparked rumors of dating among fans.

Alan keeps his love life pretty private, though at times, he gives hints on social media.
