The 18-year-old and her 19-year-old beau just recently celebrated 10 months together, and she dished about him in a new interview.
“When we started talking, we just didn’t feel the need to post,” she told Seventeen. “It’s like, ‘No, we actually like each other guys. We don’t care if you care. We like each other and we’re going to deal with it our way.”
Avani noted that she learned to keep things to herself after seeing relationships from other social media stars for so long.
“I’ve been watching social media relationships my entire life and I’m just seeing people getting together, then breaking up over Twitter, and then getting back together and breaking up in a YouTube video,” she shared. “Putting your drama out on platforms isn’t necessary, because then that’s allowing them to give feedback on your relationship.”
“Behind the screen we’re living a really, really good life. And we just don’t really care if other people are part of that life,” Avani said.
If you missed it, Avani will open up more about her life and childhood pre-TikTok fame in an upcoming new book!
At the start of the video, the girls are all sitting around a table talking about a boy and Bebe notes how she wishes she could go back in time to before social media.
“#BabyImJealous video is OUT NOW!! @dojacat and I took a little time travel to check out jealousy throughout the ages 😏😏 Thank you sooo much for being a part of this @charlidamelio @nikitadragun @avani. Directed by @hannahluxdavis ❤️” Bebe wrote on Instagram.
The 17-year-old TikTok star and Hype House member has signed a book deal with Gallery Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, THR reports.
“My fans mostly know me from social media where I make videos and create makeup looks, so I’m really excited to share my past, my personal life, and how I got to where I am today,” she said in a statement.
Avani‘s upcoming book will “detail her childhood in Brownsburg, Indiana and how suffering a back injury while competing as a gymnast led her to her social media journey at the age of 14.”
In addition to working on her book, Avani will appear alongside her Hype House group mates in an upcoming reality series.
It has been revealed that the popular TikTok group will be getting a reality series called The Hype Life.
The docuseries will follow group members Chase Hudson, Thomas Petrou, Nikita Dragun, Avani Gregg, and more with an “exclusive, fly-on-the-wall look into the glamorous, stressful and high-speed personal and professional antics of the young stars, as they live together and collaborate daily on new content,” according to Deadline.
Each episode of the show will look at their creative endeavors for brands to drama-inducing house meetings and the initiation of new members. It will also look at the housemates’ backstories, looking at the sometimes difficult and troubling events that propelled them to TikTok and the bonds they’ve formed with one another.
The Hype Life is the second reality series announced from TikTok stars. Charli and Dixie D’Amelio are also working on their own show with their parents Marc and Heidi. The Clubhouse also reportedly has a series in the works.
“Come see me at VidCon, sooo excited,” Dixie wrote on her Instagram story.
The announcement also included stars Payton Moormeier, Noen Eubanks and Avani Gregg as well as Benji Krol, Alex Guzman, Drea Okeke, Isabella Avila and Seth Obrien.
VidCon is set to take place June 17th through 20th at the Anaheim Convention Center in Anaheim, Calif.
