The Kiser family is in mourning after a terrible accident. TikToker Trigg Kiser, the son of Emilie Kiser and her husband, Brady Kiser, passed away on May 18, six days after being pulled from a swimming pool in the backyard of the family's Arizona home, according to local officials who spoke to USA Today. He was three years old.
On May 12, Chandler Police Department officers responded to a drowning incident at a home after a toddler was recovered unconscious from a backyard pool, the site reported. Before transporting Trigg to Chandler Regional Hospital, police and firemen performed cardiopulmonary resuscitation on the site. Later on, the toddler was moved to Phoenix Children's Hospital.
Sonu Wasu, the public information officer for the Chandler Police Department, told USA Today that an investigation into the incident's circumstances is still ongoing and that further information would be made public after the probe is over.
Emilie, 26, who is also the mother of Brady's 2-month-old son, Theodore Kiser, gave insight into her life as a mother before the tragedy. This includes a video that was circulated the day following the accident, in which Brady is seen cuddling up to Trigg and Theodore while lying in bed. Emilie wrote, "I can't believe they are MINE" as a TikTok caption for the adorable moment uploaded on May 13.
On a day devoted to her, Emilie, who has amassed 1 million Instagram followers and 3 million TikTok followers thanks to her family-oriented posts, also honored her sons.
In addition, Trigg and his younger brother were featured in his mother's touching Mother's Day tribute.
Emilie posted a collection of images and videos of her sons on May 11 along with the caption, "I am forever thankful that I get to be a mommy." Happy Mother's Day, everyone.
Emilie talked about her first Mother's Day as a mother of two in a different video.
In the May 11 video, she stated, "I uploaded short montage videos this morning from having Trigg to him growing up to now having Teddy." And it truly amazes me that I have two children on Mother's Day. Two boys, not just two children. Really, I wouldn't have believed you if you had told me that when I was younger.
"Having a child is really the most amazing thing,” she added. “While simultaneously being scary, terrifying, hard, beautiful, and amazing. Literally all of the emotions in one. Seriously, I'm just so grateful to be a mom.”
