Popular social media influencer, Alysha Burney, has unfortunately passed away at 24, just hours before her 25th birthday.
Alysha Burney, who had more than 5 million followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, died in her sleep on March 2 while vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. She was 24 years old and was set to turn 25 the very next day but unfortunately, Alysha unexpectedly suffered an asthma attack in her sleep.
“She does not do drugs. She was a self-loving and happy individual who cherished her life and was looking forward to the upcoming year’s plans. She was in Mexico to celebrate her birthday. She was a very classy young woman,” her brother Charles said to Fox 4 KC.
Before the brother confirmed how she passed, there were speculations on social media about how she passed which were distasteful to people. After confirming how she died, Charles shut down those rumors.
“There’s a spread of misinformation online, stating different things based on speculation. These sources lack credibility and should not be believed. My sister did not engage in environments that would lead to such situations.”
“Alysha was very goal-oriented, creative, and passionate about giving back. She graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Digital Media Production and was working towards her graduate degree,” he added.
“She was not selfish with her knowledge and was a very open book about her journey. She will always be dearly loved, and her legacy will live on forever.”
