TikTok personality Kyle Marisa Roth, recognized for her captivating celebrity gossip content, died last week at the age of 36, as confirmed by her family. The news of Roth’s sudden death left her fans in a state of shock.

Roth, a native of Pennsylvania and an alumnus of Lehigh University, was a former lacrosse athlete and had considered entering medical school. However, she shifted her focus to her burgeoning TikTok platform, where she gained over 200,000 followers by providing her clever takes on Hollywood and celebrity happenings.

Lindsay Roth, her sister, announced Kyle’s death on Instagram on Monday, April 15, 2024, expressing the family’s sorrow and uncertainty about the circumstances of her death. “We are still figuring out the best way to celebrate and honor her life,” Lindsay revealed, indicating that further details would be released in due course.

Julia Fox, an actress and fellow influencer, voiced her grief online, stating, “I felt like I knew Kyle from her videos,” and added her hope that Roth had not endured pain in her final days.

Kyle’s mother, Jacquie Cohen Roth, expressed her feelings in a heartfelt post on LinkedIn: “Kyle loved and lived with great passion. Right now, nothing is clear, but we expect to learn more in the coming days. Please, be kind to each other,” she requested.

Roth was a champion for numerous causes, including colon cancer awareness – a disease she had battled and overcome – and indigenous rights. She passionately promoted these issues through her videos and public appearances, positioning herself as a source of inspiration for many, beyond her role as an entertainer.

Two months prior to her unexpected death, Roth divulged her battle with depression on Instagram, explaining that she was suffering from severe panic attacks, which she characterized as the worst in her life. “Please don’t tell me it will be okay,” she appealed to her followers in a post that now carries a profound resonance.

Molly McPherson, a public relations specialist who had worked with Kyle, reflected on her last interaction with the TikTok personality: “I was unable to reach her in the last few days and was devastated by her loss,” McPherson revealed, describing her as “brilliant, smart, and full of boundless energy.”

Despite her lively digital presence and the happiness she imparted to her audience, Roth’s health issues were a persistent obstacle. Apart from her fight against cancer, she openly discussed her various surgeries and the physical strain they imposed on her.

The exact cause of Kyle Marisa Roth’s death has not been released, with her family pledging to offer more information as they cope with her premature departure.
