Emilie Kiser shares sad update on what her life is like now, five months after son’s death

Five months after Emilie Kiser’s son Trigg drowned in their garden pool, she’s back posting on TikTok full time and has shared a heartbreaking life update.

In a new video posted on Monday (13th October), Emilie was forced to defend the fact that she is still grieving after people said she was acting too “normal”.

Three-year-old Trigg drowned on 12th May while the mum was out at a restaurant with friends. He was taken to hospital and passed away six days later.

Speaking on TikTok, Emilie said: “I am very much grieving, and I’m very much going through a lot right now. Just want to say, like, you are seeing such a small, small, small sliver of my life right now. I’m not sharing my kids anymore. Therefore, I’m not sharing Teddy and I’m not sharing Trigg. I’m doing my best, and I’m showing a very small portion because I’m not ready to share other things. I’m not ready to talk about other things, and that is okay.”

The influencer told everyone that she is going to therapy and unpacking her grief there, not on the internet in front of millions of people.

“Trust me, it is on my mind with what happened to Trigg. But I’m not ready. And while I feel ready to return to work in some sense of normalcy, I am not ready to talk about anything about what happened to him,” she continued.

Emilie said she is “very much processing” the loss of her son, but reiterated that she isn’t going to be talking about it online, because that’s a boundary she set with herself.

“Everyone is entitled to say what they want about my grief, journey, my behaviour. But I also want to give you the perspective that no matter what, you are not seeing the full scope of things. I’m sharing the moments that I can bear to film and that I want to film because it kind of helps me step out of my reality for a second and do my job, which I very much enjoy. I genuinely enjoy content creation. That’s why I do it.”

The 26-year-old told everyone to stop feeling like they know everything about the people they watch online, because they’re only actually seeing about five per cent of their life.

“So right now, I’m choosing to share the days that I’m getting through. I truly just want to give the perspective that, like, unless you have lost someone and gone through grief, you will not understand what you would do or how you would act, because you just have never had to be in that position, and I hope you never have to be.”

Emilie said losing a child is “literally the worst pain” anyone could ever go through, and slammed people sharing their opinions on how she should be feeling, acting and grieving.

“Do you not think that everywhere I look in my house, I don’t see my child? His photos are everywhere. His artwork is everywhere. I love that because he’s my child and I never want to forget him. But I’m not showing that on camera. I’m not showing you all those things. Literally just trying to do anything to bring a little bit of joy to my life right now,” she devastatingly concluded.
