‘Larry Wheels files’ controversy explained: Streamer faces backlash from other fitness creators

Fitness personalities are accusing Larry Wheels of not paying back a $50,000 loan and have shared what they say are private messages related to his personal relationship as evidence.

The issue started on February 18, 2026, when Greg Doucette, a fitness YouTuber from Canada, posted a video claiming Larry Wheels had likely ended his career.

In the video, Doucette says he was sent screenshots of messages that supposedly show Larry Wheels stealing $50,000 from someone he knows.

What are the “Larry Wheels Files”?

In a video posted on February 18th, Doucette shared screenshots he claimed were from private messages with Wheels. He didn’t show the complete messages, but described what they said and voiced his disapproval of Wheels’ actions.

The messages accused Wheels of being unfaithful, specifically using the derogatory term “cuckold” in reference to his wife, Sheyla. Doucette also directly claimed that Wheels had stolen from someone he knew.

He stole $50,000 from his friend Daniel to help buy a house, and never repaid the money.

Instead of sharing everything himself, Doucette decided to let another YouTuber, Jon Bravo, release more details. On February 18th, Bravo published a video almost 30 minutes long that went into further explanation of the information, calling it the “Larry Wheels Files.”

During the video, more messages were shared. At 11 minutes and 35 seconds, a message from ‘Wheels’ was read stating he’s not interested in sleeping with other women, but finds it more exciting if his partner sleeps with another man. He explained this is just part of who he is.

So, Bravo brought up Wheels’ past with steroids, and honestly, it was kinda sad. He basically said that Wheels started using a ton of them when he was just a kid, like sixteen, and this is what happens when you go down that road at such a young age.

Larry Wheels’ response

Wheels has disputed the claims made against him. In a statement from a Bravo video (around the 22:45 mark), he specifically denied accusations of cuckolding, stating, “Despite what’s been shown in those edited clips, I am not involved in that, and there is no cuckolding happening in my marriage.”

There haven’t been any official legal decisions yet about the claim of $50,000. The disagreement is still happening, and people are referring to it as the “Larry Wheels Files” because it involves the fitness influencer. Larry Wheels is also now a regular streamer on Kick, alongside Rampage Jackson.
