Emilie Kiser's Brother Breaks Silence After Death of 3-Year-Old Nephew
Emilie Kiser's family continues to mourn the death of her son Trigg.
The influencer's brother Nick Espinosa appeared to address his nephew's passing while reflecting on the fleeting nature of life weeks after the 3-year-old's passing.
'Life will always throw you a curveball,' Nick, whose Instagram has since been made private, said in a voiceover as he got into his car and went for a leisurely drive. 'One day, everything feels aligned. You're making progress, chasing purpose, moving forward. Then just like that, everything changes.'
After the screen cut to black, Nick reemerged sitting on the hood of his vehicle with his head in his hands, then proceeded to toss stones towards a hiking trail. As the video, which has since been shared to TikTok, played, the content creator seemingly alluded to his family tragedy, referencing 'a call you never saw coming' and 'a goodbye you didn't get to say.'

'Don't wait for the world to remind you how fragile this life is,' he continued. 'Put the phone down. Go touch grass. Spend time with the people you love.'
Local authorities confirmed Trigg died May 18 at Phoenix Children's Hospital in Arizona, six days after he was pulled from a backyard pool at his family's home, NBC affiliate KPNX reported. Chandler Police Department spokesperson Sonu Wasu subsequently confirmed her office was investigating the matter.
'Out of respect for the family's privacy,' Wasu told E! News May 19, 'we will not be releasing additional details until the investigation is closed.'
Emilie—who also shares son Theodore, 2 months, with husband Brady Kiser—later filed a lawsuit against several public offices in Maricopa County, Ariz., in an effort to keep details of the toddler's passing private, according to documents obtained by NBC News May 29. Noting that the 26-year-old is already experiencing 'a parent's worst nightmare,' the filing argued that making the records public would invade her family's privacy.
'The records requested presumably reveal graphic, distressing, and intimate details of Trigg's death that have no bearing on government accountability,' the legal action read. 'To allow disclosure in these circumstances would be to turn Arizona's Public Records Law into a weapon of emotional harm, rather than a tool of government transparency.'

A new mom lost it over a BLT—and every parent understands why
When author and mom of four Caroline Chambers shared that her husband ate her BLT sandwich just five days after she gave birth, moms across the internet instantly got it. Because when your nipples are cracked, your hormones are surging, you're bleeding, sleep-deprived, and your newborn refuses to latch… the sandwich matters. 'George ate the effing BLT while I was in the other room feeding the baby. I cried. We have since made amends,' Chambers wrote in a now-viral Instagram post. To outsiders, it might just look like bacon. But for a postpartum mom, it can feel like a reminder of how invisible her needs have become. Related: 'Looking good for postpartum' isn't the compliment we think it is—Kylie Kelce has a better idea It was never about the sandwich The story's simple: Chambers was trying to eat a prized BLT one-handed while her newborn refused to cooperate. She left it on the counter to feed her baby, only to discover later that her husband had eaten every last bite. It triggered an ugly cry that so many overwhelmed moms instantly recognized. Postpartum deserves to be seen as a full chapter Chambers, who gave birth to her fourth baby on July 16, says postpartum hit differently this time. Even as a seasoned mom, she's still managing cracked nipples, breast engorgement, and the surreal experience of re-meeting her body after birth. 'I stared at my naked body today in the mirror and was like who even is that,' she wrote on Instagram. She's also combo feeding—breastfeeding, pumping, and using formula—to get through a rocky nursing journey. And she's not apologizing for it. 'I feel very grateful that this is my fourth child, and I don't feel like I'm going to destroy his health and intelligence if I don't breastfeed him at every single feeding,' she told Sometimes, moms need more than we know how to ask for For many new moms, it's not just about a sandwich being eaten. In the fog of postpartum recovery, even the basics can feel impossible to manage alone: remembering to eat, staying hydrated, finding time to shower. When a partner unknowingly takes away one of the only things you were looking forward to that day, it can feel like a gut punch. Chambers' BLT moment resonated because it pointed to something bigger. New mothers often feel unseen—physically depleted, emotionally drained, and still expected to give endlessly. What they need is means partners learning to anticipate needs, not waiting to be asked. It means making sure she's eaten before grabbing your own plate, stepping in for baby duty without being asked, and understanding that rest and nourishment are essential for postpartum moms. What moms actually need? A village, not a vibe Chambers is currently on maternity leave, backed by the organic formula company Bobbie, which is sponsoring her leave to help shine a spotlight on the complete lack of paid leave for self-employed parents in the U.S. Her openness—and the public's reaction—shows how deeply moms are craving space to talk about the mess of it all. We celebrate moms with hashtags and Mother's Day cards, but when it comes to actual support—paid leave, affordable childcare, time to heal—we come up short. Related: Ballet moms are done hiding their postpartum bodies—and they're changing the rules of the stage The sandwich was sacred. So is the cry. No paid family leave. No universal childcare. And no room to rage-cry over a BLT without being labeled dramatic. But when a sandwich can feel like a lifeline, it's not just about food. It's about dignity. It's about the crushing mental load and the quiet, constant sacrifices we ask of mothers. And maybe most of all, it's about the need for softness in a society that still expects moms to carry it all—without complaint, without pause, and definitely without lunch. So the next time a new mom tells you she's weeping over bacon? Don't laugh. Just bring her a sandwich. And maybe ask if she's okay. Solve the daily Crossword
