Influencer Emilie Kiser’s 3-year-old son, Trigg, has died.
Us Weekly confirmed via the Chandler, Arizona, Police Department on Sunday, May 18, that the child passed away “earlier this afternoon.” He was pulled out of a backyard pool on the evening of Monday, May 12.
The statement to Us continued, “The investigation into the circumstances surrounding this incident remain ongoing. This is still an open investigation. Out of respect for the family’s privacy, we will not be releasing additional details until the investigation is closed.”
Chandler Fire Department told Arizona’s 12 News on Wednesday, May 14, that a 3-year-old boy was in critical condition after being discovered. According to the department, police officers got to the residence first and began CPR on the unconscious boy before firefighters arrived and took over.
The boy was then flown to Phoenix Children’s Hospital for treatment.
While the boy was not identified initially, rumors began to circulate online that suggested the boy could be Kiser’s son after her followers noticed the popular influencer, who is located in Arizona, had not posted a TikTok video in more than two days.
“Emily i hope you are okay. i feel sick!! 😭,” one follower wrote in the comments section of Kiser’s latest morning routine TikTok video that featured Trigg, her newborn son, Teddy, and husband Brady.
“Please be a bad rumor 😭 I’m sick,” another person said, while a third added, “I’m sending you so much love Emily. 🤍”
Kiser, who has amassed 3.1 million followers on TikTok and more than 1 million on Instagram, is known for her relatable videos on the day-to-day experiences of being a wife and mother.
After welcoming Trigg in July 2021, Kiser and Brady announced they were expecting baby No. 2 in September 2024.
“WE GOTTA BABY GROWING🕊️🤍,” Kiser wrote via Instagram alongside a photo of herself with Brady and Trigg holding a sonogram photo. “We can not wait to add another angel to our family. Whatever you are, we love you so much already🥹.”
The couple welcomed son Teddy in March, which Kiser announced via Instagram. “We love you so much and our hearts feel like they are going to burst,” she wrote at the time, sharing a series of photos from the hospital birth. “I am so grateful for a smooth delivery, a healthy baby, and the best husband. Could not have done it without my rock @bradykiser. The love I have for my boys is infinite.”
