Influencer Ben Bader sadly passed away on October 23 (US time), according to a TikTok post his girlfriend Reem shared recently. He was just 25 years old. A cause of death has yet to be revealed. The Miami-based content creator died just a little over a month after he celebrated his 25th birthday on September 22.

In a heartbreaking and tear-jerking tribute, Reem described Bader as the “kindest, most caring, most generous person” she’d ever met. “He genuinely loved every single person that he met and he was so positive all the time,” she said in a post dated October 26.

With a combined following of over hundreds of thousands across social media platforms, Ben had earned his name as a lifestyle and financial advice content creator. As per a People report, the rising influencer was also the face of a financial coaching course and shared financial tips via an email newsletter.

Despite certain speculations about how he died, Reem told SNS users circumstances surrounding the fatal development were “still unknown.” She added, “No one really knows and it seemed to have been extremely sudden. There were really no signs of this happening — we were supposed to get dinner that night and he seemed so normal. I had just talked to him on FaceTime a couple hours before he passed and he was so happy and so normal and he was just smiling and being so funny.”

Us Weekly has since confirmed that the cause of death is still under investigation with pending toxicology reports.

Bader’s grief-stricken partner further disclosed that they were eventually planning to get married and have kids.
