US influencer Ryan Pownall has claimed his reported fling with Australian OnlyFans star Annie Knight prompted her then-boyfriend Henry Brayshaw to propose just 48 hours later.
Pownall made the allegation in a video shared with his 1.1 million followers, in which he described Knight as “once my girl” and appeared with her on a date in Los Angeles. The pair were shown kissing repeatedly, while Brayshaw could be seen in the background.
The influencer said his involvement with Knight began in Cancun in 2025, where he claimed she suggested they meet in Los Angeles for a date. He also discussed Brayshaw’s presence around Knight in the Indonesian party town.
According to Pownall, Knight told him Brayshaw was “not my f…ing man” but “just my best friend Henry”. He said he was later informed, only an hour before a planned dinner, that Brayshaw would also be attending.
Pownall showed footage of Brayshaw at the dinner table wearing a white shirt. He said Knight later told him: “me and Henry are going to another party.”
Describing the evening as a “W for Henry” and an “L for Ryan”, Pownall said he urged Knight to “take care of your man”. He claimed she again replied: “He’s not my f…ing man.”
“48 hours later they go on some BFF dinner, he proposed, she said yes,” Pownall said in the video.
He also claimed the couple’s subsequent wedding was linked to his involvement, saying: “A few days ago they got f…ing married, and on their wedding post they said they only got married because of me … only got married because I made Henry jealous.”
Knight, 29, married Brayshaw earlier this month at The Valley Estate in Currumbin Valley, Queensland, in front of 72 close family and friends.
The wedding attracted attention after Brayshaw’s father, retired cricketer James Brayshaw, was notably absent. A joke from the master of ceremonies about Knight’s sexually active history also went viral after it failed to land well with guests.
“Firstly to the caterers, the bar staff, the venue and obviously the 30,000 sad, lonely men that paid for all this,” the groomsman said during the speech. “That’s my one, that’s it.”
Knight and Brayshaw later travelled to Boracay in the Philippines for their honeymoon.
