== Controversies ==

=== Four-timing partners and having 16 affairs (2022) ===
On 20 May 2022, 2 women reached out to local publication MustShareNews to share their dating experience with Ashry Min.<ref name=":0" /> According to them, both women met Ashry on the dating app, Bumble where he currently goes by Kylen Ryker. There were also 2 other women who were seeing Ashry romantically.

==== The bagel incident ====
[[File:Ashry Owyong Min (1).jpg|alt=B had posted the above photo of the bagels on her Instagram story. Photo from MustShareNews.|thumb|''B had posted the above photo of the bagels on her Instagram story. Photo from [https://mustsharenews.com/ashry-owyong-kylen/ MustShareNews].'']]
Ashry Min had been unaware that these 2 women were secondary school friends and his double-timing was foiled when one of the girls (hereinafter to be referred to as party A) recognised a photograph of bagels she had made for Ashry, which was posted on the other girl’s Instagram story (hereinafter to be referred to as party B).<ref name=":0" />

On 5 May 2022, Ashry sent a picture of bagels to B and B posted them on her Instagram story. However, A recognised these bagels in the story. She had been dating Ashry at the time and was actually the one who made these bagels earlier on the morning of May 4th.<ref name=":0" /> When confronted about this, Kylen brushed it off saying that she was merely an acquaintance he met at work, that he “[treated] her like [his] lil sis”.<ref name=":0" />

==== Acting evasive and suspicious with regards to his place of residence ====
When driving to his apartment, Ashry Min would tell his partners to hide in the backseat on the pretence of avoiding his “psycho ex-girlfriend” and keeping them safe from her.<ref name=":0" /> They would later find out that this apartment belonged to another one of his lovers.

==== Opening up about his past scandal and breaking up with A to be with B ====
According to A, Ashry confessed about his past 5-timing scandal as Ashry Owyong Min and said “I’m not as good as you think I am”.<ref name=":0" /> He also shared that “people had asked him to kill himself” for his behaviour at the time. At this, A was touched by his apparent genuity and honesty.

However, Ashry eventually came clean about having grown feelings for B, whom he previously saw as a “lil sis”. After going on a trip to Kuala Lumpur with B, he realised he had feelings for her and ultimately chose B over A.<ref name=":0" /> Even after Ashry broke up with A, he asked that A keep their initial Bumble-match timing a secret and instead tell B that A matched with Ashry before B, if the need ever arose.<ref name=":0" />

==== 16 individuals that Min could have been in a relationship with ====
After digging through Ashry Min’s now deactivated Instagram account, A and B found and reached out to his “psycho ex-girlfriend”. However, they found out that they were “probably the 16th person to reach out to [the ex-girlfriend] over the past year”.<ref name=":0" />

Although it is unclear whether Ashry is still in an active relationship with all 16 of these individuals, this saga ascertained that there were at least 4 partners that he had been dating during this period of time: A, B, the woman who owns “his apartment”, and his “psycho ex-girlfriend”.

==== Other unlawful acts that were exposed by the 2 women ====
According to A and B, Ashry had committed a series of unlawful acts during their time with him. They include:

* Often driving a black Mercedes but did not own a driving licence. In 2018, he had once been fined S$2,200 for a related offence.<ref name=":0" />
* Taking a trip to Vietnam despite testing positive for COVID-19 twice.<ref name=":0" />

==== Apologising for his dating habits and behaviour ====
Whilst being interviewed by MustShareNews, A and B were both contacted by Ashry Min over text and he apologised for his two-timing habit.<ref name=":0" /> He also met up with A and B in person, where they shared their disapproval of his behaviour.

“I won’t ever go back to the old habits and change for the best and in my future and lives. I’ve done too many wrong stuff. And I know I’ve taken ppl kindness for weakness.”<ref name=":0" />

=== Exposed by influencer ex for five-timing during their relationship (2017) ===

==== The initial stages of Min and Teo’s relationship ====
The then couple had first met on Tinder in 2016. Chloe Teo and Ashry Min then began dating shortly after the former broke up with her previous partner.<ref name=":0" />

During their relationship, Ashry had requested for Chloe to keep their relationship offline and private, which she agreed to. However, on the couple’s Boracay trip, Ashry posted an Instagram story of Chloe.<ref name=":0" /> This led her to believe that he wanted to make their relationship public.

She also proceeded to repost the story on her own Instagram account.

==== Receiving messages from Min’s lovers ====
After sharing the aforementioned post on her account, Chloe Teo began receiving private messages from girls who claimed to have dated Ashry Min.<ref name=":0" /> In particular, she received a message from a girl who had apparently been dating Ashry from 2015 up until the time she contacted Chloe.<ref name=":0" /> This conversation took place during her Boracay trip.

Even after confronting Ashry about this matter, he claimed that this stranger was a “sister” and even asked her to deactivate her Instagram account.<ref name=":0" /> However, Chloe was still suspicious and reactivated her account, then proceeded to clarify things with his “ex”. During this time, at least 5 other women began contacting Chloe with similar stories and all claimed to have dated Ashry in the 4 months that Chloe had been dating him.<ref name=":0" /> One of these exes even asserted that she “found out that he had a gf and bf”, before she proceeded to break things off with him.<ref name=":0" />

==== Other untruthful or unfaithful acts that Min committed during the relationship ====
Chloe Teo claimed that Ashry had several affairs with other individuals while they had been dating, and he would lie about his whereabouts to go on dates with them.<ref name=":0" />

She revealed that he had at least 3 separate Instagram accounts at the time, namely:<ref name=":0" />

* @ow.ash - the “cleanest” one that he shares with he “gives all his flings”
* @kalenahele - a more private account with posts that feature his long-term girlfriend
* @heyyitsamo - an account whose purpose Chloe was unsure of

Chloe also claimed that Ashry dated another man during their relationship.<ref name=":0" /> When questioned about the physically-intimate photos they took together, Ashry denied the affair saying that they were just “good friends”.

Finally, Chloe found out through a friend that Ashry had been trying to date the former through Tinder.<ref name=":0" /> Chloe proceeded to confront him about it and asked him to sign in to his Tinder account. However, “he insisted he forgotten the password” and even claimed that his account was hacked.<ref name=":0" />

=== Webcam sex scandal during secondary school ===
According to Ashry Min’s ex-girlfriend Chloe Teo, he had been expelled from secondary school for a “webcam sex scandal”, where he had been caught taking revealing shots of himself doing inappropriate acts.<ref name=":0" /> In one of the screen-captures from the scandal, his attire also revealed that he belonged to one of the Anglo-Chinese schools’ water polo team.
