Gordon was married to [[Sally Arntzen]] for around 9 years. He had little to no contact with the rest of the Arntzens, with the only known interaction being [[Ruple Marx Smith|Ruple]] and [[Family#Connie|Connie]]’s marriage, where he acted as the wedding officiant.

He noted that Ruple was very immature for his age and that Connie was noticeably mentally impaired, giving him the impression that Ruple was taking advantage of her.<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=780</ref> | ||
When Sally | When Sally decided to adopt Chance in 1994, she did so without consulting Gordon, causing significant friction between the two because Gordon was unwilling to have children. The stress of raising Chance eventually led to their divorce somewhere between 1998 and 2000<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=323</ref>. Sally seemingly struggled to accept this outcome and continued to reach out to Gordon for several years after their divorce, insisting that he takes the role of Chance's father figure. Sally went as far as to move to Florida so that Chance would be "closer to his father" when she learned that Gordon moved to the state<ref>https://youtu.be/hB6t6_WyOlI?t=665</ref>. | ||
In 2014, Sally made another push | In 2014, Sally made another push by reaching out to Jenni behind Gordon's back, since she was mostly unaware of her background with Gordon. Jenni took pity onto Chance, sympathizing with his harsh family background, and accepted to recieve him for a camping trip. Gordon reluctantly agreed to go along since the plan was already in motion. | ||
Chance, who was 23 at the time, initially acted nicely around Jenni and Gordon, but his true colors would rapidly start to show when he had a freak-out one night after convincing himself that his aunt had died. When Jenni tried to reason him, he quickly became hostile to the point where she had to throw him out of the house until he cooled down<ref>https://odysee.com/@MusicBizMartyArchive:7/2023-10-22-Why-Chance-was-dishonorably-discharged-from-being-a-Wilkins--an-interview-with-his-former-father:8?t=1795</ref>. The camping trip itself went mostly without incident, but Chance was very uninterested and refused to partake in most activities and tasks, preferring to remain glued to his phone. The straw that broke the camel's back for Gordon was when Chance showered upon returning home and left the bathroom in complete disarray, causing Gordon to call chance "the laziest white boy he's ever seen". Chance barked back by calling Gordon a deadbeat, which caused the latter to snap and ram Chance against a wall threatening to cave his teeth in<ref>https://odysee.com/@MusicBizMartyArchive:7/2023-10-22-Why-Chance-was-dishonorably-discharged-from-being-a-Wilkins--an-interview-with-his-former-father:8?t=2746</ref>. Chance was then promptly kicked out of the house, and sent back to [[339]] with the help of one of his former school teachers. | |||

Starting in early summer 2024, rumors circulated that Gordon had passed away from cancer, although these claims remain largely unsubstantiated. | Starting in early summer 2024, rumors circulated that Gordon had passed away from cancer, although these claims remain largely unsubstantiated. | ||

* On his first night at Gordon's house, Cyraxx saw a Facebook post from his aunt containing a photo of herself surrounded by dogs and presumably her grand-children with the caption "I have died and went to heaven". Cyraxx bemusedly [[Intelligence|took this literally]] and started to panic, demanding Jenni to let him return home. When Jenni attempted to reason him and calm him down, Cyraxx started becoming hostile and accused Jenni of hating him. The situation escalated to the point where Jenni had to walk Cyraxx out of the house until he calmed down. Cyraxx remained enraged for a while, banging on the door and threatening to urinate on it. Jenni claims that she did not lock the door.

Keep in mind this occured in Florida, where temperatures average at around 75°F (23°C) at the time of the incident. | ** This event explains Cyraxx's claim that Jenni had "physically attacked him" and that he was left to "freeze" outside.

* Sally was extremely territorial when it came to her kitchen, or at the very least had so little trust in Chance that she forbade him to step foot in there unsupervised. When Cyraxx was around 8 years old, he and a friend went inside to make themselves some peanut butter and jam sandwiches, causing Sally to flip out once | |||

In January 2024, Gordon claimed that he and Jenni had filed a defamation lawsuit against Cyraxx on their ''The Real Wilkins Family'' channel. | In January 2024, Gordon claimed that he and Jenni had filed a defamation lawsuit against Cyraxx on their defunct ''The Real Wilkins Family'' channel. As time went on without any significant development however, people started to question whether Gordon actually intended to file a lawsuit or if this was simply a lie to foam up his channel and donations from viewers eager to see Chance getting brought to justice. Questions about Gordon's transparency were being promptly deleted from his livestreams, becoming defensive and telling a viewer to "fuck off" on one occasion<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8xyreWoJxs</ref>. Additionally, the case number of the lawsuit was "24-434343/339CA"<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/OfficialMusicBizMarty/comments/1967gjf/for_those_who_think_that_the_legal_documents_the/</ref>, a very obvious inside reference to Cyraxx. Later in the month, Gordon suddenly disappeared off the internet and deleted his YouTube channel shortly after, leading to the conclusion that indeed the lawsuit was fake, with the presumed intent of grifting donation money from viewers before running away with his gains. | ||
Many also noted how Gordon seemed to be hot-headed at times, peculiarly in his reactions to Chance's annoyance and questions regarding his transparency about the previously-mentionned fundraiser. Some have theorized that Cyraxx's extreme anger issues and brash attitude likely originated from Gordon when he was raising Chance as a young child. | |||
