Billy Evans, Elizabeth Holmes’ romantic partner and the villainous third wheel in Nathan Fielder’s “You Can See Everything,” has taken to social media to answer burning questions about the documentary.

In a post on X Monday night, Evans invited viewers to “AMA” (ask me anything), with the addendum: “Needs to be legally permissable [sic].”

Asked to pick one misconception about the film to dispel, Evans said, “That I somehow control Liz. Anyone who actually knows her would find that idea hilarious. She’s fiercely independent, strongwilled [sic], and my best friend. We are partners in every sense. We challenge each other, disagree, and face the world together. Her closest friends are also some of my closest friends. If I ever mistreated her, they’d have my head.”

And asked if he regrets agreeing to the documentary, Evans wrote, “Not at all.” In case there was any doubt as to whether Evans was familiar with Fielder’s work, he said before the documentary he had seen “almost all of it.” Still, Evans said he and Holmes did “0” preparation ahead of filming with Fielder.

Evans said they celebrated Fielder’s birthday during production, “around the table in Del Mar with my family.” He said Fielder missed the Time 100 dinner — the magazine named the comedian one of the 100 most influential people in 2023 — so they celebrated that too.

Culture critic and podcast host Hunter Harris asked Evans whether he thought Christopher Abbott — who plays Evans in reenactments opposite Amanda Seyfried as Elizabeth Holmes — was miscast. Evasively, Evans replied, “Who is that?”

One question that came up repeatedly was whether Evans was high on cocaine during the filming of the documentary, which had been speculated due to his frequent sniffing. “Never been a fan,” Evans said when asked directly about the drug. “Solo parenting 2 toddlers you are sick approx 75% of days. Allergies in Austin TX are no joke,” he wrote. In another post, he asked, “Please someone from Austin back me up here.”

When one X user asked about his “facial bloating and the going insane part,” Evans responded, ” I got fat. Raising 2 kids alone, best friend in prison, depression, building a business. I ate more than I should. I was fat. Less so now. I prioritized my kids over my health. I’ve learned that I can find the time to do small things for myself again. And that eating after 10pm isn’t one of them.”

In “You Can See Everything,” Evans explains to Fielder that he has been posting on Holmes’ social media accounts while the Theranos founder is incarcerated. Evans said he does not need to get Holmes’ approval for the posts because, essentially, he knows what she would say. Plus, he holds power of attorney for Holmes.

“We talk about everything, including X. Nothing happened behind her back,” Evans wrote underneath a question about his control of her social media. “The POA was simply the legal mechanism that allowed me to act on her behalf while she’s incarcerated. It was not a substitute for her consent.”

Evans also weighed in on a few pop culture topics. Replying to music critic Anthony Fantano’s question, “is to pimp a butterfly a 10/10?,” Evans wrote, “Kendrick [Lamar] is a generational talent.” Asked about his “favorite pop diva,” Evans wrote, “Chappell Roan has one of the best live sets I have ever seen. The crowd was amazing. I bought our engagement ring at a Taylor Swift reputation tour merch stand. Aretha Franklin has the best voice.”

His four favorite films are “The Fall,” “Alien,” “The Great Dictator” and “Primer.” And when asked about popular podcaster Ethan Klein being accused of cheating on his wife, Hila Klein, Evans said, “The moral superiority of EK is absurd. His wife had every right to shame him publicly.”

On a sincere note, Evans replied to a few questions about Holmes. He said the first thing he will do when she gets out of prison is “hold our kids tight and talk all night.” And he wrote, “I miss everything about her. I miss her presence. Her touch. The way she runs her fingers through my hair. Her patience. She makes me a better person. And without her, I feel an emptiness that’s hard to describe. People often say they need someone when what they really mean is that they want them. I’ve thought a lot about that distinction. I need Liz. She should qualify as a medically necessary prescription.”

What does he not miss about his partner? “Def not this,” he replied to someone suggesting “her scrambled eggs.”
