Emilie Kiser’s 3-Year-Old Son Trigg Drowns in Backyard Pool Days After Family Photos Were Shared
Tragedy has struck the family of TikTok star Emilie Kiser, as her three-year-old son, Trigg, has died following a heartbreaking drowning accident.
Authorities in Chandler, Arizona, confirmed that little Trigg was found unresponsive in a private backyard swimming pool last Monday. He was rushed to a nearby hospital before being airlifted to a children’s hospital in Phoenix for advanced treatment. Sadly, his death was officially confirmed on Sunday, May 18.
Police expressed condolences to the Kiser family and stated that no further information will be released as the investigation remains ongoing.
Just days before the devastating incident, Emilie had posted joyful photos of Trigg and her newborn son, Theodore, on social media, showing a happy family enjoying life together. Those posts have since become heartbreaking reminders of a life cut short.
With more than 3.1 million followers on TikTok and 1.2 million on Instagram, Emilie Kiser is known for sharing her parenting journey and family moments. Fans quickly noticed her sudden absence from social media last week, sparking concern before the news broke.
Although Emilie has yet to speak publicly about the tragedy, her online pages have been overwhelmed with messages of support and sorrow:
We are all wrapping our arms around you and your boys.”
“How awful. Life is so unfair.”
You and your family are so loved.
Emilie and her husband Brady had recently welcomed their second child, Theodore, on March 29. In her birth announcement, she wrote:
I am so grateful for a smooth delivery, a healthy baby, and the best husband. The love I have for my boys is infinite.
She later posted:
There are no words to describe finally meeting Teddy and analyzing every part of him and how perfect he is. We’ve been soaking up every second as a family of FOUR.
Now, that joyful moment has turned into one of unimaginable loss.
