Billy Evans, Elizabeth Holmes' life partner and holder of her power of attorney, hosted a question-and-answer session on X on Monday, November 2, addressing the most disputed moments of the new documentary "You Can See Everything." The three-hour film, directed by Nathan Fielder and Lance Oppenheim, premiered as one of 2026's most talked-about releases. Evans set one condition for the session: every question "needs to be legally permissible."

Evans is the primary focus of the documentary alongside Holmes, the Theranos founder. The film begins as a straightforward record of the couple's life in San Diego during the final month before Holmes reported to federal prison. It then widens into an investigation of Evans' influence over Holmes and the workings of their partnership. The couple have two children together and are working to launch a new blood-testing startup in the vein of Theranos.

What did Evans say about the sniffing?

The film repeatedly shows Evans sniffing on camera, a detail viewers noticed immediately. Evans attributed it to allergies. When a fan raised the rumor that cocaine was the explanation, he replied flatly: "Never been a fan."

What about his relationship with Holmes?

Evans denied that he exercises real control over Holmes, a question the documentary puts at its center. He admitted he remains romantically devoted to her. He said he misses her presence and touch so intensely that the Theranos founder "should qualify as a medically necessary prescription." He remains active on X, running both his own account and the one he operates for Holmes.

Was the cousin's "thing" explained?

Yes. Early in the film, Evans abruptly ends a beach conversation with Fielder when the subject turns to his family's wealth, saying vaguely that he is late for his cousin's thing. Evans claimed the event was a marriage proposal and implied he arrived in time.

Did the shower scene come up?

It did. Evans rejected the suggestion from one fan that he had wanted to perform full frontal nudity in the documentary, calling the idea a "false narrative." He linked to a PEOPLE story reporting that he felt "violated" by the scene and added, "trust the sources."

What else did he reveal?

Evans fielded questions well beyond the film. He named his cultural favorites:

  • Chappell Roan
  • Kendrick Lamar
  • Charlie Kirk
  • Taylor Swift

He also disclosed that he bought Holmes' engagement ring at the Reputation tour merchandise booth.

Fielder and Oppenheim's film argues that nobody can fully see everything through a documentary lens. Evans, still posting on his own account and Holmes', appears determined to test whether a person can at least post everything instead.
