Some folks might think Jake and Logan Paul’s past feud was just a PR stunt, but those in their circle swear it was the real deal. Jake’s former business partner, Nick Crompton, even feared the brothers would be each other’s downfall. “It got, for me, scary at one point because they kept one-upping each other,” he said in “The Enemies of Jake Paul” documentary. “I was just like, ‘when is this going to stop?’ There was a moment there where I was like ‘what is going on right now?’ I was worried that they were just going to destroy each other.”
Fortunately, the feuding simmered down, coinciding with Logan finding himself in the middle of a YouTube scandal that rocked his reputation. But looking back, Jake realized that he didn’t really harbor any ill feelings towards his brother, only that the competitive nature of their profession got into their heads. “He hated me, but I didn’t necessarily hate him,” he told Entertainment Tonight, noting that they both got into the realization that they’re better off as partners, not enemies. “We got sucked into the Los Angeles madness and it got the better of us, and we had to realize, like, look, we’re brothers at the end of the day. That’s more important than any of this other stuff that we have going on and once we figured that out, we have worked together to take over a lot of industries.”
