Fans and fellow influencers flocked to the comments section to mourn and honor Pretty Pastel Please.
"Rest in peace Alex," influencer Kim Dao wrote. "You were beautiful and I'll always cherish the memories we had. I'll never forget us bonding over being ADHD buddies. I'm devastated but I hope you will watch over us now."
One devastated fan commented, "This is not what I wanted to open Instagram to today. Rest in peace, Alex. You were a joy to watch and follow these past years."
"I've been watching her since I was just a teenager in school," another shared. "This is one of the first contact creator deaths that actually feels personal, although I could never begin to imagine the grief her loved ones feel. I'm so sorry."
Some also lamented how Pretty Pastel Please was subjected to "cruel" comments over her personal life in the past few years.
"It's been very difficult to watch her health decline over the past few years and to then watch others be so incredibly cruel to her," one fan commented. "I don't want to speculate on how she passed, but regardless, I hope all of those who participated in kicking her when she was down really look within themselves and feel shame over their behavior."
Last year, Pretty Pastel Please revealed in a YouTube livestream that she and her husband were getting divorced.
