Emilie Kiser has spoken out publicly for the first time since the death of her son, saying she takes “full accountability” in an Instagram statement shared on 28th August. Three-year-old Trigg drowned on 12th May, and she has remained silent on her social media profiles until now.

“Loss of this magnitude feels impossible to put into words. I’ve spent days, weeks, months trying to find them and also take the time I’ve needed to digest the loss of my baby,” she said.

“Trigg is our baby and our best friend. The light and spirit he brought into this world was bright, pure, joyful, and undeniable. We miss him every second of every day and continuing forward often feels unbearable. I never thought we would experience grief in this way or the pain of losing him so suddenly.”

The influencer said it’s a “pain, heartache and void” that no family should ever have to endure and she takes “full accountability” because she didn’t have a pool fence installed.

“I know I should have done more to protect him. One of the hardest lessons I carry is that a permanent pool fence could have saved his life, and it’s something I will never overlook again. I hope amidst this pain, Trigg’s story will help prevent other children and families from suffering the same loss.”

“To our family: we would not be getting through this without you. The support you have given us, the unconditional love, and the way you show up is something we will never be able to repay or thank you enough for. We truly have the best and most supportive friends and family who have, quite literally, carried us through this and continue to do so daily.”

She thanked everyone around who has supported her, sent her kind messages and outpoured their love during “these extremely tough times”. However, she said she will need to have more “boundaries” with what she shares online in the future to protect her children’s privacy.

“The only way through grief is to keep going minute by minute, hour by hour, day by day, and every moment since that day I’ve done my best to keep picking myself up,” Emilie added.

“In the future, I hope to be in a place to share more about how I am navigating this grief, but right now, all I can say is thank you for the love, compassion, patience and space you’ve given us to grieve. I am more grateful for it than can ever be expressed.”
