Piper Rockelle is a jack of all trades with many talents under her belt. At a young age, she has achieved a lot. 

Rockelle excels in her professional career, but her personal life has taken some dark turns. Rumors have also floated around that Hunter Hill is her brother, and the two are siblings or at least half-siblings. And If that is true, this is a very messy family situation, according to the fans.  

Hill is also the director, cinematographer, and editor of Rochelle's videos and content on her YouTube channel. 

Add to that, Tiffany Rockelle Smith, Rockelle's mother was sued in 2022 by 11 young social media influencers who alleged that they had been exploited and abused by Smith and her boyfriend Hill. 

Along with Smith, Hill was also listed as a defendant. According to Deadline, the court records stated Hill as the live-in-boyfriend of Smith, who also works for Rockelle.

Are Piper Rockelle and Hunter Hill Siblings?

It might be confusing for anyone to guess whether Rockelle and Hill are actually siblings since both have given contradicting statements in different timelines.

Posting a video on his Youtube on September 2022 titled "I Lied To YOU. I’m Sorry", Hunter Hill and Piper explained that they were not actually siblings but instead had a relationship of best friends because of which they had a siblings-alike bonding. They also explained that they had used the term brother and sister since it was a trend at the time to describe someone who was close.    

And since the lawsuits and Smith and Hill's accusations went viral, Rockelle backed down her claims. 

In different TikTok comments, Rockelle claimed that she was not related to Hill and that he was not her brother.

However, in the past, they had said that they were siblings. 

When Rockelle was young, she made videos with Hill stating that he was her brother. Hill also confirmed it, saying they were siblings. 

Hill had also confirmed he was her brother via Instagram comments on various fan pages. Also, fans began to wonder if he was her half-brother and if they shared the same dad and had different mothers.

And fans also wondered who their father was and began wondering if he had left before Rockelle was born, as it is a known fact that Piper's father didn't want a kid and Smith did not want to abort her baby and independently gave birth to the actress.

Later, in a video uploaded by a fan page, Hill said that he was adopted. This led many to wonder if his adoption was the reason he shared a different last name than Rockelle's.
