The Aba and Preach situation

The whole Aba and Preach situation has been all over my feed and I have questions about what people who have been following this situation think. Starting with the most obvious one do people think the allegations against Aba are credible or does this feel like something that got picked up and blown way out of proportion by the internet? Because I can't tell from the outside looking in.

What stood out to me is that the conversation seems to have shifted away from the actual allegations and toward whether Preach is holding his own partner to the same standards they've built their entire platform around applying to other people and that's where it gets interesting to me. Multiple women coming forward is harder to just dismiss but I also know allegations alone aren't proof of anything and people online have a tendency to treat accusation as conviction which isn't it either.

I've seen the stuff circulating about Aba allegedly getting multiple women pregnant and the ex girlfriend who came out publicly and described her experience with him. I don't know what's verified and what's just speculation that snowballed. If anyone has followed this closely, I'd like to know what has real weight behind it and what's just internet noise that took on a life of its own.

The consistency angle is the part I keep coming back to though. If your whole platform is built around critiquing other creators relationships, behavior and personal decisions, you really can't then turn around and say your own personal life is completely off limits when something surfaces. That's not how it works. The tradeoff of being a commentator is that people are eventually going to commentate on you and expecting otherwise seems like a pretty significant blind spot.

I'm curious where people think the line is between legitimate public scrutiny and just invading someone's private life. Is there still a boundary there, or does building a platform around accountability commentary mean you've essentially opted into being held accountable yourself. Some of the attitudes being discussed feel really dated which is a big part of why this has gotten as heated as it has.
