TikTok Star Kaelin Bradshaw Dead at 29 — What We Know So Far

In October 2023, Kaelin’s condition began to worsen. On October 12, she shared that her most recent MRI showed no blockage — but revealed that the tumor in her liver had grown.

The following week, on October 19, Kaelin created a GoFundMe page titled “Help Us Through This Fight.” In the fundraiser, she spoke openly about the emotional and financial toll of her illness.
