The TikTok community has faced a huge loss. Eva Evans, a rising social media star and influential figure, known for creating the comedy series ‘Club Rat,’ has tragically passed away at the age of 29.
On April 21, Evans’ sister, Lila Joy, took to her own Instagram account to announce the influencer’s tragic passing. Encouraging everyone to share her post to ensure it reached those who needed to know, Lila shared her message on social media. “Yesterday my family received news that our sweet, fabulous, creative, caring, hilarious Eva, my beautiful sister, has died. After 24 hours, I still find myself in a constant cycle of denial and acceptance, so I know how unbelievable and hard to process this news will be.”

She went on to write in the caption, “I wish I had Eva here now to refer to because she would have better words and know how to say what I don’t. I am keeping this brief, so we can plan for the next few days, but you will be hearing a lot more from me on how much Eva means to me and just how different the world will be without her.”
A “celebration of Eva” is being planned by her family for Tuesday, April 23, at 4 PM at Grace Church in downtown Manhattan. Following this, an intimate gathering for immediate family and friends will take place, with further details to be communicated privately.
