How the news spread

The viral reports left fans confused as they couldn’t tell if the news about Kevin’s death were real or not.

It all started with a social media post that claimed: “CLR ADV She doesn’t know the apartment number but to ask for Kevin Samuels at the front desk CLR ADV there is an unresponsive male at the loc (breathing but not alert or conscious).”

Many refused to believe the post as the YouTuber was active on his social media accounts only a few hours ago. The image consultant even shared a video titled “Modern Women Are A Party of 1?” on Thursday (May 5) on Instagram.

The post is now flooded with comments as fans are unable to believe that he has passed away.
