His 2-year-old son died after an accident: the tragedy that shocked TikTok

A tragedy struck American influencer Emilie Kiser,  who lost her eldest son, Trigg, just two months after giving birth to her second baby. The news moved millions of followers on social media and brought attention to the invisible risks present at home.

Emilie, originally from Chandler, Arizona, had shared with her online community the recent arrival of her second son, Theodore. However, the joy turned into horror when her firstborn accidentally fell into the pool at their home.

An unexpected and devastating accident

The accident occurred even though the pool had a safety fence.  Trigg, just two years old, was quickly rescued by his parents and received immediate medical attention. Still, his condition was critical from the beginning.

The little boy remained hospitalized for six days, but unfortunately, he was unable to recover. His death was confirmed days later, causing a wave of sadness among Emilie's followers.

Silence on social media and family mourning

Emilie and her husband, Brady, decided to step away from the digital environment from the moment of the accident. The influencer did not make any public statements, and everything indicates that she sought refuge in the intimate circle of her family to cope with the grief.

Social media, however, was filled with messages of support. The story went viral on TikTok, where Emilie has millions of followers who expressed their pain and solidarity.

So far, the couple hasn't shared additional details, although American media confirmed that the accident happened at their home and that the child was treated at a local hospital.

This family tragedy exposed the dangers that can lurk even in spaces considered safe. It also sparked a debate on social media about the importance of strengthening preventive measures in homes with young children.
