In early 2019, Beahm signed with Creative Artists Agency, and the following year signed a multi-year deal with Twitch.

E3 Bathroom Incident

As Dr Disrespect, Beahm has gotten into some trouble. One of his most controversial incidents occurred at the E3 expo in Los Angeles in 2019, when he and his cameraman entered a public restroom and kept on live-streaming on Twitch, a violation of Twitch's privacy rules. As a consequence, he was banned from E3 and had his Twitch account temporarily suspended.

Other Ventures

Outside of his streaming career, Beahm has been involved in various ventures. In 2020, he worked with Hi-Rez Studios to design a custom map and a character skin for the free multiplayer third-person shooter "Rogue Company." The next year, Beahm announced that he was launching an AAA gaming studio called Midnight Society, to be headed by himself, veteran developers Quinn DelHoyo and Robert Bowling, and CEO Sumit Gupta. The mission of the studio is to create a community experience in which players have the power to determine the games' designs and features. Elsewhere, Beahm penned a memoir entitled "Violence. Speed. Momentum.," which was published in 2021.

Personal Life

Beahm is married to a fellow live-streamer who goes by the alias Mrs Assassin. In 2017, he admitted that he had been unfaithful to her, and took a hiatus from streaming. The two ultimately reconciled and went on to stream together, with Mrs Assassin often making humorous cameos on her husband's streams. The couple has a daughter named Alana.
