“I Just Hated You for It”: KSI Opens Up to His Dad on How ‘Love’ Affected His Life in “Later Years”

KSI is what many consider the comic pioneer on YouTube because of his absurdly dark but hilarious jokes. Although he was mostly criticized for that, even by his parents, fans who followed him for years know how much he has learned over the past few years. But despite him being a shy child, he has a serious complaint about his father “beating” him to make him understand the weird ways of life.

But as any child, KSI, even after so many years, still has a sort of complaint about not being treated right and that his father’s beatings actually affected him in his later life. However, there’s more than just complaints, and that’s “love”.

KSI finally confronted his father

KSI, one of the biggest names in the world of online entertainment, recently released a documentary on Amazon Prime titled “KSI: In Real Life”. The documentary offers an intimate look at the life of the YouTube sensation, from his early days as a gamer to his rise as a music artist and influencer. One of the most moving moments in the documentary comes when KSI confronts his father after almost 10 years of estrangement, opening up about the emotional toll that his father’s beatings had on him as a child.

In the clip, JJ tells his father, “Well, it affected me in my later years, dad.” His voice is one of pain and hurt, as he reflects on the impact his father’s actions had on him. He goes on to say, “Just like it affected you.” The honesty and vulnerability in his words are striking, as he shares with his father the emotional scars that have lingered for years.

But despite the pain and hurt that he felt, KSI’s love for his parents shines through in the documentary.

Everything gets sorted out between the two

Towards the end of the documentary, however, KSI and his father are seen hugging each other, and KSI says, “I love you” to him in a very emotional and impactful moment. The embrace is a decisive moment, as it symbolizes the healing that has taken place between father and son.
