After graduating from high school, she studied biochemistry. While studying, she worked as a tutor, assisting struggling anatomy, microbiology, and physiology students. Although she had an interest in sports, especially MMA, life took her on a different path when she met Bobby.
Why They Broke Up
Sadly, they split up in June 2022 but still host the podcast together. Fans of the show were devastated by the news but weren’t surprised. They’ve revealed on the podcast in the past they went through marital issues.
Mainly it comes from the fact the romantic aspect of the relationship fizzled out when Khalyla had health issues in the Philippines. Bobby believed it changed to more of a caretaker relationship and felt like he couldn’t make love with her anymore.
Also, Bobby revealed he developed an addiction to watching adult videos. As a result, her needs were unfulfilled. They tried having an open relationship to fix this but it didn’t work out.
How She Met Bobby Lee
Khalyla met Bobby on Tinder in 2013 and texted for a while before agreeing to meet. The date went well and the pair had great chemistry. Not long after Bobby and Khalyla were a couple. Initially, Bobby chose to keep the relationship a secret and despite rumors online, the couple never got married.
Tiger Belly Podcast

After starting the podcast, eventually, they felt comfortable enough to reveal they were dating. Some criticism from haters claimed that Khalyla was using Bobby to boost her profile and for his money.
This stemmed from a joke she made about only being with Bobby for his money. This, of course, angered many fans. But she later explained her side on Twitter. Khalyla’s fortune is reported to be around $200,000, while Bobby is worth $1.5 million.
Aside from growing the podcast, the beauty is racking up followers on other social media platforms. With around 348,000 followers on Instagram, Khalyla Kuhn’s audience is in decline but she still uses it to promote personal ventures.
Pregnancy Rumors
Tiger Belly fans are speculating that Khalyla is pregnant but she hasn’t made any public announcements. Potentially she may want to keep it private if the rumors are true. Social media often amplifies negative opinions, and Khalyla has been the target of personal attacks online. These often stem from isolated comments or misinterpreted podcast moments.

There was also the drama of Khalyla calling out a comedian who cheats on their wife while on another podcast. Schaub then believed Tiger Belly was posting negative stuff about him on Reddit. The chaos put a lot of strain on the relationship which played a role in the breakup.
