Dan & Phil are back together on YouTube!

Phil Lester, otherwise known as AmazingPhil, shared a new video on his channel on Monday (January 4), and it featured his longtime friend Dan Howell, aka DanIsNotOnFire.

The new video is the visual form of a recent audio broadcast on Stereo, and they shared some life updates, like they bought and designed a house!

Dan also shared an update on himself, as he has been taking a break from YouTube. His last video was his coming out video in June 2019.

“As we know, I have clearly taken a break from regular YouTube uploads. Not that I ever arguably had regular YouTube uploads,” he said. “This was an emotional and spiritual, and personal growth journey that I choose to be on.”

“‘Cause you know, the gay video, everything else, I really felt like I hadn’t really had time to ask, who am I? What do I want? What am I doing? Why?” Dan continued. “And I’m in that period… Well, there were supposed to be a couple of things and then 2020 happened. Let’s move on from 2020, shall we?”

“Look, I know that people miss me, and I appreciate that. And I really value the fact that people support and they care about me, not just like a ‘How are you Dan, what you up to?’ personally, but that they express an interest in wanting more content from me. That makes me feel happy,” he added. “So I just want to say thank you to all of those people. I know that I could probably post more on Instagram and Twitter…”

Fans were even extra excited to see the duo back on camera together, on YouTube. See some reactions below!
