Popular influencer's cause of death revealed after shock passing two days before her 25th birthday
A popular social media influencer's cause of death has been revealed following her passing just two days before her 25th birthday.
Misha Agrawal the founder of Mish Cosmetics passed away on Thursday, April 24. A notification of her death on her Instagram page revealed the heartache of her loss.
Agrawal's sister released a statement on Instagram Tuesday, confirming she died by suicide after feeling 'worthless' over not reaching 1million followers.
She wrote: 'My little baby sister had built her world around Instagram and her followers, with a single goal of reaching 1 million followers and gaining loving fans.
'When her followers started decreasing, she became distraught and felt worthless. Since April, she had been deeply depressed, often hugging me and crying, saying…'what will I do If my followers decrease? My career will be over.'
'I tried to console her, explaining that this isn't her entire world, It's just a side job, and if it doesn't work out, it's not the end. I reminded her of her talents.'
'I advised her to view Instagram as mere entertainment and not let it consume her. I urged her to focus on her happiness and let go of anxiety and depression.
'Unfortunately, my little sister didn't listen and became so consumed by Instagram and followers that she left our world forever. Tragically, she became so overwhelmed that she took her own life, leaving our family devastated.'
The post - showing a doctored image of Misha's Instagram followers to show 1million - was captioned: 'Her Phone wallpaper says everything.
'Her only aim of life. Instagram is not a real world and followers are not real love, please try to understand this.'
The star's passing was announced Saturday in a statement which read: 'It is with a heavy heart that we share the heartbreaking news of Misha Agrawal's passing.
'Thank you all for the love and support you showed her and her work. We are still trying to come to terms with this immense loss.'
'Please keep her in your thoughts and continue to carry her spirit in your hearts,' the statement concluded.
A similar notification was made by her company on Monday.
She wrote: 'My little baby sister had built her world around Instagram and her followers, with a single goal of reaching 1 million followers and gaining loving fans'
'When her followers started decreasing, she became distraught and felt worthless. Since April, she had been deeply depressed, often hugging me and crying, saying…'what will I do If my followers decrease? My career will be over'
'We are heartbroken to share that our founder, Misha Agrawal, has passed away. She built MishCosmetics.in and Mish Hair Oil with love, passion, and a dream to make a difference,' the statement said.
After asking for patience as they company tries to fulfill orders, they finished the statement with gratitude and hope for the future.
'Thank you for standing with us, for your endless love, and for believing in Misha's dream. Let's continue to keep her spirit alive — together.'
Neither statement revealed the cause of death.
Fans were shocked at the news.
'We all deserve to know what happened, it's unbelievable,' wrote one of her 348 thousand followers.
'One of the few content creators......to whom I am following from their starting days......she has very good humor.......with a very good sarcastic tone.......really feel bad for her.......' grieved one fan.
'Guys I wish she was alive to see how much she was loved , please give her family some time to absorb this. Keep her in ur prayers,' advised another.
The social media star was also popular for her content with videos ranging from women's empowerment to being OCD
On her social media page, Agrawal, an entrepreneur in India, explained she started the company after dealing with her own hair loss issues.
'Back in 2023 I started losing a lot of hair, And I cant bear losing hair, that's when we curated this entirely organic oil made with natural herbs like fenugreek, bhringraj, shikakai, amla and many more, and in just 7 weeks I could see possible hair growth.'
The company sells only one product, Mish Hair Oil, which sells for the equivalent of about $6.00 US.

I wed a Nigerian toyboy 43 years my junior – people think I'm ‘crazy', call me his ‘grandma' & say he's with me for cash
AGE RAGE I wed a Nigerian toyboy 43 years my junior – people think I'm 'crazy', call me his 'grandma' & say he's with me for cash Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A 68-YEAR-OLD woman has revealed that she said 'I Do' with her Nigerian toyboy, who is 43 years her junior. When Kay, 68, and Ablack, 25, first connected on Facebook, they had no idea that a simple social media like would lead to marriage. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 4 An age gap couple have candidly opened up about their unique relationship, which started from a Facebook like Credit: Instagram/@ab_ablack2 4 Ablack, 25, proposed to Kay, 68, just three days after meeting and he is now her fourth husband Credit: Instagram/@ab_ablack2 4 But Kay's toyboy has been accused of being with her for money and a Visa Credit: YouTube/Truly 4 Despite this, Kay claimed that she has "never felt love like this before" Credit: YouTube/Truly But now, the couple have opened up on their unique relationship and explained how just three days after meeting in real life, Kay's toyboy popped the question. Revealing all to Truly, on an episode of Love Don't Judge, the couple admitted that they are constantly stared at in the street and Kay has even been accused of being Ablack's 'grandma'. Opening up about how their relationship first blossomed, Kay recognised: "He liked something I posted. He went from somebody who liked my post to my very best friend, I could tell him everything. It just kept getting stronger and stronger." After three failed marriages, Kay was initially 'very leery about being scammed' by the youngster. Not only was the mother called 'crazy' by many, but before long, the couple had tied the knot, with Ablack being Kay's fourth husband. Despite falling in love, the couple constantly face judgement over their age gap, with Kay being 43 years older than Ablack. But Kay beamed: 'I do not feel old when I'm around him. I feel very young, like a teenager.' With Ablack based in Nigeria and Kay over in the US, the pair have had to make the relationship work with the geographical distance. However, Ablack knows that the pair are destined to be, as he acknowledged: "A prophet told me that I'm going to get married to a white woman and here she is.' But although destiny brought them together, not everyone agrees with their relationship, as Ablack said, "Some people say, 'she's old enough to be your mum'. Some say, 'you're married to your grandma', 'she's too old for you'. I'm 20 and my man is 63 - people say he looks like Shrek and I must be in it for the money, but I'd still love him if he was a cleaner 'Anywhere we go, people take pictures of us.' Not only this, but people have even accused Ablack of getting 'married for a US green card'. Be careful girl. Scammers can be 'in love' too! YouTube user Clearly unfazed by the judgement, Kay, who is often referred to as Ablack's 'sugar mummy', said: "I've never felt love like this before. "This is the one I'm supposed to be with, I just had to wait a long time for him to be born. 'He treats me like a Queen. I'm his priority.' A-list age gap relationships that have stood the test of time Kris Jenner & Corey Gamble - 25 years The Kardashian matriarch, 69, met her younger man, 44, at a mutual friend's 40th birthday party in Ibiza. They've been together since August 2014. Sam & Aaron Taylor-Johnson - 23 years The director, 57, and actor, 34, reportedly met at a film audition in 2009, and were married by 2012. The pair share two daughters and Sam has two children from a previous marriage. Rosie-Huntington-Whiteley & Jason Statham - 20 years The model, 37, started dating actor Jason, 57, in 2010. They were wed in 2016 and have since welcomed a son and a daughter together. Catherine Zeta-Jones & Michael Douglas - 25 years Catherine, 55, was introduced to Michael, 80, a film festival in 1996 and engaged three years later. Shortly after their engagement, the couple welcomed a son and married in 2000. Social media users react Social media users were left stunned by the couple's age gap relationship - and nasty trolls were out in full force in the comments on the YouTube clip. One person said: 'As a middle aged woman who's probably close to her age, this makes me uncomfortable.' This is the one I'm supposed to be with, I just had to wait a long time for him to be born Kay Another added: 'The prophet"s name is Visa.' A third warned: 'Be careful girl.

Pia, who is from the UK, was left beaming with her new purchases, which she nabbed from the Primark store in Bluewater, Dartford.

Wow Instagram user So if you're searching for a co-ord that will flatter any body shape, you'll need to move fast to your nearest Primark store. These two new sets are sure to be winners with many fashion fans this summer and when worn together, will be ideal for garden parties, holidays, beach days and beyond. Fashionistas beam The Instagram clip, which was posted under the username @pia_gracesmith, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 256,000 views, 4,418 likes and 103 comments. Why Primark is great for looking expensive on a budget By Clemmie Feildsend, Fabulous Fashion Editor AS someone who's no stranger to grabbing a last-minute outfit from Primark for a night out, it's about time that celebrities started catching on too. For as long as I've been heading out, Primark has been my go-to for those 'I have nothing to wear' moments, rushing in at the last minute to find something perfect. And I'm definitely not alone - on any Friday or Saturday night, you'll find plenty of shoppers doing the same thing, right before closing time. But no matter what, Primark always delivers. Now, Rita Ora is leading the charge, showing that you can snag a designer-worthy look without spending a fortune at high-end stores. While Rita's not rushing in last minute for a red carpet outfit, she's proving you can achieve the same high-impact style for much less. Looking stunning in her tailored suit alongside her mum Vera, Rita fit right in among the other A-listers dripping in Prada, Dior, and Victoria Beckham - if anything, she looked even better than some of the guests at The Fashion Awards. With Myleene Klass and Roxy Horner already jumping on the Primark bandwagon, I'm sure more stars will be following suit soon enough. Fashion fans were left gushing with Pia's Primark haul and many eagerly rushed to the comments to share their thoughts on her purchases. One person said: 'Obsessed every time.' Another added: 'I'm getting it all.' Meanwhile, a third gasped: 'Can't believe these are from Primark!! Wow.' Whilst someone else chimed in: 'Taking my behind to Primark this weekend.'
