Nmplol Divorce Lawsuit, Financial Abuse Allegations Rock Twitch Power Couple’s $1M Split
Twitch streamer Nick “Nmplol” Polom faces allegations of economic and financial abuse in his divorce from Malena Tudi, revealing a secret decade-long marriage that ended with disputed million-dollar assets and claims of financial control.
What Is the Nmplol-Malena Divorce Case?
The divorce petition, filed January 16, 2025, in Travis County District Court revealed the couple married September 25, 2015—a fact hidden from fans for nearly a decade. The case centers on dividing community property worth over $1 million, including their shared home, while Malena’s court filings allege Nmplol maintained exclusive control over their finances throughout the marriage.
Nick filed his response February 3, 2025, requesting the couple reach an independent agreement on asset division. However, subsequent filings revealed deeper conflicts over financial control and asset access.
Financial Abuse Allegations Emerge
Court documents state Malena requests the court consider “Respondent’s economic and financial abuse of Petitioner” when dividing the marital estate. The allegations include:
- Restricted Financial Access: Documents claim spending by Malena required Nick’s prior approval, with most financial accounts in his name despite their joint content creation
- Limited Transparency: Filings allege Nick controls the majority of community estate without transparency, evidenced by failure to provide documentation in discovery
- Account Control: The petition alleges Nick’s failure to permit access to community property accounts for insight and access to funds
Malena has not commented publicly since December, remaining silent on social media throughout the proceedings.
Infidelity Claims and Denials
April 2025 court documents suggest Malena discovered suspicious photos and messages on Nmplol’s phone after his return from Amsterdam. According to filings, the couple traveled to Spain in June 2024 to care for Malena’s ailing mother when Nick left for a streamer convention against her wishes.
Nmplol responded on Discord: “I have never cheated and never will,” adding that much circulating information has been “unequivocally false”.
Texas Community Property Law Framework
Texas law governs this case under community property principles, which significantly impacts the division of assets.
Community Property Rules:
- All property acquired during marriage is presumed community property
- Courts divide assets in a manner deemed “just and right”—not necessarily 50/50
- Judges may award disproportionate shares when financial misconduct or abuse is proven
Financial Abuse Considerations: Texas courts can adjust community property division favoring the victim, potentially awarding a larger share to compensate for financial losses. If marital misconduct is proven, the affected spouse could receive more than 50% of community assets.
What This Means for Malena: If her allegations are substantiated, she may receive:
- Larger portion of the $1+ million marital estate
- Temporary spousal support during proceedings
- Court orders freezing marital accounts
- Exclusive control of certain assets

Assets at Stake
The couple’s community property includes:
- Real Estate: Shared home now valued over $1 million
- Business Interests: Both held stakes in One True King (OTK), the streaming organization Nick co-owns
- Content Revenue: Income from joint streaming and video content
- Financial Accounts: Multiple accounts allegedly controlled primarily by Nick
Legal analyst Henry Resilient estimated the settlement could cost Nmplol around $850,000 before factoring in OTK assets, potentially pushing the total over $1 million.
Privacy Battle and Public Disclosure
Nmplol’s motion to seal records aimed to prevent public access to sensitive divorce details. However, Henry Resilient obtained and published court documents before the sealing took effect.
Nick acknowledged on Discord he was impressed Resilient obtained documents within a 12-hour window before they were sealed. The public disclosure has made this a highly scrutinized case within the streaming community.
What Happens Next
The case remains pending in Travis County District Court. Key pending issues include:
Asset Division: Whether the court will approve a negotiated settlement or impose its own division
Financial Abuse Claims: Whether Malena can prove Nick’s alleged financial control and restriction of access
Discovery Process: Nick’s compliance with discovery requests for financial documentation
Temporary Support: Potential orders requiring Nick to provide temporary spousal support while the case proceeds
Sealed Records: Whether additional filings will remain confidential
Legal Implications for High-Asset Divorces
This case highlights critical issues in divorces involving content creators and digital entrepreneurs:
Financial Control in Modern Marriages: When one spouse manages joint business ventures while restricting the other’s access, courts can intervene under financial abuse principles.
Community Property in Content Creation: Income from joint streaming and content creation is community property, regardless of whose name appears on accounts.
Privacy vs. Public Interest: Even sealed court records may become public before protective orders take effect, especially in high-profile cases.
Discovery Obligations: Spouses cannot withhold financial documentation during divorce proceedings without potential consequences.

Seek Immediate Protection: Courts can issue temporary orders freezing accounts and providing financial access
Don’t Delay Legal Action: Financial abuse can be stopped by court orders guaranteeing access to funds needed for daily living and divorce proceedings
Understand Community Property: Texas law presumes equal ownership of marital assets, but courts can adjust division based on misconduct
Frequently Asked Questions

They married September 25, 2015, when Malena was 19 and Nick was 24. The marriage remained secret from fans until divorce filings became public in February 2025.
What are the main allegations in the divorce?
Malena alleges economic and financial abuse, claiming Nick maintained exclusive control over finances and restricted her access to community accounts. April 2025 filings also included allegations of discovering suspicious photos and messages suggesting infidelity.
How much is the divorce settlement worth?
The settlement could exceed $1 million including their home valued over $1 million and potential OTK business interests.

Why were the court records sealed?
Nmplol filed a motion to seal records February 18, 2025, likely to maintain privacy given the public nature of both parties’ careers as content creators.

Financial abuse includes cutting off access to shared economic resources like cash, bank accounts, and credit cards, or restricting a spouse’s financial independence. Texas courts can address this through protective orders and adjusted property division.
