Who Is TikToker Bella Bradford? 5 Things to Know After Her Death at 24

TikTok star Bella Bradford is being remembered for her positive spirit and love of fashion after her death.

On Thursday, October 31, Bradford announced her own death in a pre-recorded video published weeks after her passing.

"I have terminal cancer and unfortunately, by now, my life has come to an end, and I've passed away," Bradford said via TikTok. "But I wanted to do one final Get Ready With Me because I love doing these, and I love fashion. Thank you for following me on this fun journey, and yeah, I hope you will back on all my videos and find a little bit of joy in your day if you ever needed to feel."

News of Bradford's death was shared within the video's caption, revealing that the influencer "passed away peacefully surrounded by the people she loves most" on October 15 at age 24.

As her friends and followers continue to mourn her loss, get to know the influencer who left a positive impression on so many fans:

"I was diagnosed with a really rare form of cancer in my jaw muscle when I was 22," she explained in a May TikTok video. "I thought it was my wisdom teeth. Turns out it wasn't."

At the time of filming her video, Bradford said her cancer was "incurable." As a result, she was receiving palliative care, which focuses on improving the quality of life by helping patients manage their symptoms.

Throughout her cancer journey, Bradford maintained her love and appreciation for clothing and accessories. Her TikTok followers looked forward to her outfits of the day, even when she went to the doctor's office for chemotherapy treatments.

"I am just living each day to the fullest," she said in a TikTok video. "I want to spend time with family and friends. I found that through a lot of my treatment, I have loved fashion and really went into, you know, keeping up with the fashion industries."

In early September, Bradford was able to enjoy an unforgettable trip to sunny Noosa. In addition to sharing her outfits of the day while on vacation, Bradford enjoyed plenty of shopping and beach trips with her mom.

"Finally making it to Noosa!" she wrote via TikTok in August. "Mum and I booked on a whim because I have a week [off] chemo so we thought we'd make the most of it. See ya in Noosa."

In June, Bradford shared a video featuring the "20 things I learned through cancer." While cooking in the kitchen, the influencer shared wise words that brought her peace and clarity during her health journey.

"Life is short even if you live to 100 and life is way too short to live in pleasing other people," she said. "We are not our experiences. We are, however, our reaction to those experiences."

The video quickly drew positive reactions from hundreds of fans with one follower who wrote, "Thank you for sharing this, I listened to every word and you are so right."

Throughout the month of August, Bradford documented 20 days of her Beyond Words Gratitude Challenge. As part of the exercise, the influencer would share a quote and brief reflection for her followers.

One of her favorite quotes came from Albert Einstein who stated, "A ship is always safe on the shore but that is not what it was built for."

Bradford called it "an important reminder to put yourself out there even if it feels scary. ... I challenge you today or sometime this week to do something that scares you. What's the worst that can happen?"
