Bretman Rock on Finding Love, Family Trauma & Getting Hexed

Trigger warning: This episode contains conversations about family trauma and eating disorders. If these topics are difficult for you, feel free to skip or take breaks as needed. 💜
Bretman Rock is back on Pretty Basic — in his lover era and wilder than ever! In this chaotic, laugh-until-you-cry episode, he shares the wildest family stories from his childhood in the Philippines, opening up about discovering his dad’s affair, becoming the breadwinner at just 13, the challenges of discussing mental health with foreign moms, and what motivated him throughout it all. Plus, he drops the sweetest (and most unexpected) tea about his relationship, reveals his iconic first DM slide, and takes us inside his exclusive love story. Oh, and did we mention breastfeeding a monkey, a chicken funeral, his very real hex from his ex—and why he’s calling out people for kissing their cousins (yes, really)? Buckle up—this one’s a ride, and it’s piping hot.
