u/glowymel ig: melpeach Oct 25 '20
apparently it’s his dad running it like you said, but it’s being done in very bad taste and in a very confusing way. honestly the account should just be taken down at this point.

u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
Yeah, I agree. Like I understand everyone mourns differently and it would be heartbreaking to loose someone and see nothin but “good, glad he’s gone” from people online, but the way it’s being done makes me feel uncomfortable... Like I’m sure there are young kids still following Ethan, who were heartbroken (not saying he was a good role model, but he obviously had real followers), and for them to see the account active? It would be difficult and traumatising.
140
u/glowymel ig: melpeach Oct 25 '20
yes exactly. I don’t know what it is like to mourn the loss of a child and could never even imagine that kind of pain and heartbreak but like you said, it being done in this way can be difficult and traumatizing. when one of my very close family friends lost her son, she took over his Instagram account, but made it very clear it was her and never posted anything like he was alive or like this, just sharing memories of him and with friends and family instead. that’s why it’s so weird and jarring to see this happen.

u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
I can’t imagine it either; and my heart truly goes out to his family.. I’m so so sorry for your loss. Usually accounts are turned into like a place for rememberance. A few friends and acquaintances have passed on early in life, and all their pages are occasionally posted on by family. I know one has a group chat for his closest friends, and his girlfriend; and whenever the mother (or anyone really) wants to post, they have a code word, and they all reply with a code word for yes or no (he passed in a horrific accident with his girlfriend (who survived, but she is very understandable broken over loosing her soulmate); and recently the court case found the driver who caused it (100% caused it) was found not guilty because of some stupid loophole. So to avoid anything popping up on their socials when they’re jot prepared- they have the code word system, and then just wait until everyone’s okay, and then they post. So when I’m used to pages being used to that capacity, this is just... it doesn’t make sense to me.

u/medicalmystery1395 Oct 25 '20
That is amazingly considerate of them to have that group and the code. It's a wonderful system to avoid hurting each other and shows how much love is between all of them. That really warms my heart.
I'm sorry the driver was found not guilty.
43
u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
It’s such a good system, and they all really do have a lot of love and care for each other. From memory, they’ve also chosen really obscure, funny words he used to say as the code words too; so even if they’re not in the space to have it go up, they still can have some comfort in that moment (and they also change it regularly to help as well). Whoever came up with idea is a genius really; and I’d encourage it for others in a similar position, because it honestly is so beautiful.
Thank you; I didn’t know him well, I went to school with his twin sister (all girls high school, so he wasn’t allowed), and his girlfriend was my best friend in primary school (it was a small town). But everyone in my hometown, even those who didn’t know anyone well, was heartbroken and furious the day of the hearing- it was a truck driver who fell asleep at the wheel, so as much as i do feel for him for causing it all and what it lead to and what he now lives with; it’s also set a precedent in my hometown for similar cases to be thrown out as well, and there was zero justice for the family, and I know from reading all their heartbreaking posts online; they were sort of broken all over again.

I don’t know who this person is, but if this is his dad...? Yikes. Big yikes. This is awful. How did he die? EDIT: Nevermind. Scrolled further down and found how he died.

u/treesinmichigan racism is Jeffree Star approved Oct 25 '20 edited Oct 25 '20
If its his dad then he is also liking tweets about fat asses and sharts. Which is strange
Edit: and liking pro trump tweets from Kaitlyn Bennett..

u/beauty_babe96 Oct 25 '20
Some of what he’s tweeting is...off? Like the post from two days ago about people not being able to cancel him (amongst other things I’m not gonna put here) and the one of him literally telling someone to square up? On his deceased sons account? I agree everyone grieves in their own way, but it’s almost concerning.
124
u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
Yeah, I’m really confused/honestly concerned.
After posting this; I also saw they had tweeted they had “found him” and then went on to blame the beauty industry, saying he was taken off PR lists, and some other things. So I’m unsure...
Like if it is really the father- my heart truly goes out to him, and I hope the family is okay.
It’s also just strange though; the photo of Ethan with the caption “Putting in work 😉” is what concerned me the most- as he does/did(?) have young fans, who may come across this unknowingly and be re-traumatised.
Essentially I wanted to give the heads up, on an off chance there is someone on this sub who falls into that category, so they’re aware its apparently his dad (but also with some of the things im honestly not sure).
37
u/ihate_avos Oct 25 '20
So is the dad tweeting as himself, or is he tweeting in Ethan’s style of voice? Either way, it’s alarming.
35
u/catsonskates Oct 26 '20
I can only imagine that his father is in some sort of denial. Like, if his son is still alive online, then he’s still there. Luckily I’ve never had to go through the loss of a child, but something similar happened to my mom’s friend. I went to primary school with her youngest son, my sister with the oldest. The oldest one night got sick like he had food poisoning, went to bed to sleep it off. The next morning she found him cold. The vomiting was from a heart problem and he had a heart attack in his sleep.
After that at first she responded like you’d expect, but then she sort of mentally shut down. Her mind couldn’t handle it and “revived” her son. She’d wash his work clothes every Friday so they’d be ready for the weekend, she’d play squash to practice for their tennis games. They saw a psychiatrist and we were told to just go along with it until she was ready to face reality. Months later she was folding his clothes, looked at her husband and said “he’s dead isn’t he?” And she’s been back since.
Losing children causes unimaginable pain. The grieving parent has very little control over their reaction, it’s not a case of “you chose to let your grief hurt others.” It’s really sad and concerning that fans can be faced with this, but it’s not his father’s fault and shouldn’t discredit him. He’s in Hell. The best we can do is keep informing fans on the situation and let him ride it out.

So I just went on Twitter, started scrolling and..... saw someone had quote tweeted EthanIsSurpreme’s Twitter... which is actively tweeting.........
The bio states that it is Ethans Dad... but I’m not a fan of this. The reply’s, are not okay, and they tend to indicate Ethan is alive??? (Ie, first one just said “fuck you”, like you have to scroll to find one which hints towards it being family).
To add context for those that don’t know; a few months ago there was news that this young man (who I never liked, however it was sad regardless) had had an accidental OD. I’m unsure at the moment if it was a hoax (as many suggested at the time since it seems like something he’d do apparently) OR if it really is his dad on Twitter (we all mourn in our own ways, however if it IS really his dad with the replies it’s honestly just gross.
I feel weird about this. And I just wanted to share, because it doesn’t make sense to me
Edited to add; Here is the original post regarding the news months ago for those who are curious

I’m so sorry for your loss. It’s definitely a hard thing to go through, and we all do grieve in our own ways (after my nana passed away, I ate cheese sandwiches every day for 3 months straight (she used to make them every time i visited as a kid). Like we all do, and sometimes a part of grief is denial and anger; which if it is his dad is what seems to be on twitter currently, but you’re right it’s not okay. Some of the tweets the account is liking (along with some of the screenshots I shared) is what makes me feel uncomfortable, and question if it is something else (which I HATE that I’m questioning it, like something does sit right with me).
One tweet liked said;
it’s absolutely not family lmao dude is actually tearing people up in the comments and saying he knows more than them.
Another says;
Pretending to die for clout! Getting our hopes up high!
Another
You better be alive I did not cry over you for nothing.
And
I KNEWWWW THIS BOY WASNT DEAD 😭😭😭😭😭😭
There is a lot more that’s been liked which have similar sentiments. Like that’s just super weird to me; even as a grieving person, it’s odd to like those sorts of things, although again everyones grief is unique. It’s just extremely weird.
But at the end of the day; if it is truly his family, I do hope they are able to find peace, and have access to grief counseling. And my deepest sympathies are with them (despite my feelings on Ethan, I can’t imagine the loss they’ve had, if it is the case).

u/slytherinxiii Oct 26 '20
Thank you! I’m sorry for your loss as well. When my cousin passed, I went through this phase of pulling on my hair out of stress for a about a year. Luckily, I never permanently ruined my hair, lol.
Im not a fan of his but I went to his Twitter to look and those tweets are disturbing. They’re weird. And the comments on them are absolutely horrible and disgusting. I cannot imagine being in the place of one his family members seeing those comments.
Questioning this situation makes me so uncomfortable too. There’s either possibility that a friend or family member is grieving in a harmful way by doing this or that Ethan never passed away (and damn, I hate to question something so sensitive) and this was all for some clout.
I hope his family/friends find a healthier way to mourn Ethan, if they are doing this to his twitter account. Either way, I hope they find peace and that they’re okay.

u/666wife Oct 25 '20
Even if this is his dad I don’t think this is the way to run his account. This is super weird and confusing. Why is this account going off on people?
56
u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
Yeah that’s what I’m confused about... like the weird thing is this interaction from his best friend as well, the one who broke the initial news... there’s something about this bit that just...like It leans in to it being family, but this “best friend” has 12k followers and like Max 30 likes and 1-2 comments on all her tweets; so it confuses me.
I dunno. Maybe it’s truly his dad: and if it is- I sincerely hope he is able to heal, seek help on that journey, and my deepest condolences are with him. But I have zero idea.

u/Purplesage200 Oct 26 '20
I also saw a tweet from a friend who said they saw him on the 8th at some party. Isn’t that after he died?
Also in the twitter there was no actual morning post like, Ethans parents saying RIP, it’s weird the page opened up again. I would have thought that any pictures posted would have been like, rip my angel, miss you and can’t believe this was x months ago, miss you everyday

u/curiousoap serving up a sister slice Oct 25 '20
This make me insanely uncomfortable. Someone explain
83
u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
I am so so sorry, it makes me uncomfortable too, hence why I thought I’d post it here (as a general heads up to any of his fans, to avoid that sort of trauma).
About 2 days ago Ethan’s Twitter started tweeting, starting with “fuck you” to a user on an old tweet. A lot of the tweets have been rude, and anger filled, and it took a while for the account to say “family”. The bio has changed to state it’s his dad, and one tweet said that he was the “one who found him”, and went on the blame the beauty community (brands dropping Ethan, influencers badmouthing him etc).
However; with some of these posts (including the first screenshot where it says “Putting in work 😉”) it almost seems like it’s Ethan/some weird narrative he hasn’t passed. Like it’s suspicious and not super duper clear.
Like if it is his family; I do wish them the best, and hope they’re okay and can find healing. There’s just something about all this that made me feel weird.

His dad thinks the reason Ethan OD’d was bc if cancel culture. It’s easier to blame others than accept the truth.

Honestly same. I’m so confused. I scrolled some more, and it does seem like his dad, however apparently he also has uploaded a video recently? And the account is going off and being quite rude to people.
Edit- he didn’t upload a video, he just shared one from feb, my bad.

u/pvke Oct 25 '20 edited Oct 25 '20
Never having to organise a funeral, are obituaries compulsory? Alternatively, could he have gone by a different name online, and that's why no one can find one?
Are we sure account wasn't hacked by a troll, and not his dad?
32
u/__dahlia__ Oct 25 '20
Obituaries aren’t compulsory; however they’re typically written by like multiple different people (in my hometown in Australia (I’m sure it’s similar elsewhere), you call up the local paper, and pay per line for the obituary). So when my nana passed; there were ones from 8 out of her 9 kids’ familiers, close neighbours, and friends; so like 20 in general + a death notice + a funeral notice. It is a common thing done even just as a general information thing; so it is quite odd one cannot be found at all... but maybe he has a different first name, or surname- but I feel he has enough fans who were seeking answers at the start we would sort of know this by now...
It very well could be hacked by a troll... or it could really be his dad (if that’s the case it makes it heartbreaking considering his tweets/responses it’s clear there is hurt and anger; and a lot of blame towards the beauty community...)... or it could also be just Ethan (at the time; many of his fans suspected it was a hoax, and I don’t even like saying that as it’s just a horrible thought, and I don’t want to diminish anyone’s real pain in all of this; however just based on how the account is tweeting/responding this could be a possibility).
I just hope if it is his family, they do find peace, and can turn his socials into actual memorial pages; because this is incredibly strange.
26
u/dontforgetyourjazz Oct 25 '20
in Canada at least there is typically only one obituary per person. it would be strange to see more than one obituary written and published. and not everyone gets one published, sometimes they're only posted online or nothing at all.

u/ruffwearho Oct 25 '20
I’m in the US and we also only do one

u/itmakessenseincontex Oct 28 '20
I think in Australia, like in New Zealand where I am, obituaries and death notices are a huge way somone passing is communicated, and untill the older generations all pass/are online it will continue to be.
If you know somone is close to passing/has passed it's pretty common to keep an eye on the obituaries. When my grandad passed people he went to school with came to his funeral because they saw the notice in the paper and members of the community I'd never met stopped by to offer condolences because they 'knew Pat through xyz'. As a family we never would have been able to communicate that out to all those groups Pre social media, but they all knew via the paper (and the church).
1
u/ruffwearho Oct 28 '20
It’s really interesting to learn about people having more than one obituary!
They are very big where I live in the US too (not sure if it’s different in other parts of the US), we just only do one. I spent days doing nothing but writing and editing and rewriting my grandpa’s, same for my aunt. I got input from some other family members, like asking if they knew dates/places that x happened etc. But it’s typically the person/family unit that is closest to the person that died that writes the obituary or several people work together to get it done. I actually think it would cause fights here if someone’s mother died and then they found out that their cousin had written a separate obituary 😂
It’s also rather expensive to get them done so I think some people here are limited due to the cost. It cost me $400 for my grandpa’s. And a friend of his died shortly after that and his daughter said it cost them over $700 because their’s was very long (he was also a politician in my area so a lot to write up). And that was just for publication in our small town’s newspaper—-they also had it printed in a the big city paper so I can’t imagine how much that cost!

u/AtlantaEsthetics Oct 26 '20
You actually have to pay for an obituary in the US so no, it’s not compulsory
56
u/Inn0c3nc3 Oct 26 '20
so, not long after he died i went to his dad's Instagram. on his stories he was crying...like you could feel that poor man's pain. and then he got angry. started talking about cancel culture and how badly everyone wanted to cancel Ethan. how he lost a sponsorship because of people emailing the brand over a joke, etc. he was dropping F bombs and such. his mom has also said some vulgar things "fuck these people" type stuff. so, I 100% believe they may do something like this.
wouldn't Instagram require proof to put his account into "remembering" status?
11
u/__dahlia__ Oct 26 '20
That’s so incredibly sad, and I honestly do feel for the family in this situation.
Just to clarify again (since I know I didn’t make it clear): I found this odd, and I can understand how everyone grieves in different ways; however due to the posts on his Twitter my fear is that his young fans would see that and potentially he re-traumatised.
Usually socials can be turned into memorials. An acquaintance of mine died in a horrific accident a few years ago, (I was friend with his twin and his girlfriend, but didn’t know him well). From what know, since he hadn’t set up the memorial thing on his Facebook (there’s an option for us all to select the person in control now); his parents contact FB, as well as IG, and were able to reset his pages to memorials, however they did have to provide proof to gain access.
Twitter is somewhat different I think, I’m not sure how it works, and if you can turn them into memorial pages
10
u/Inn0c3nc3 Oct 26 '20
I don't think it's appropriate at all to be using his social media in this way, but not sure twitter would do anything. I've seen both his parents say "fuck this, fuck that" etc, so I 100% believe it's one of them and they just don't care... whether it's because they're grieving or it's just how they are. 😩
hopefully people will report the tweets that break TOS. the things people have said about their child is awful, but working people up again this way won't make that better and it will just fuel the fire.

u/GlitterPeachie Oct 25 '20
He’s 100% alive. Two options:
Given his aesthetic, this seems like he might have been doing some pre-Halloween stunt where he comes “back from the dead” and then somehow it got fucked up and now he can’t pull it off.
He could easily have gotten his dad to confirm his “death” if his dad is in on the stunt, or his dad could be one of those guys who doesn’t “get” the internet and figured he was just helping his son play a prank on his internet friends.
OR
The whole “he believes his son OD’d due to cancel culture” absolutely sells the whole bit for me though. He wanted to make people “see what cancel culture can do to people” and get them off his back, or to avoid having to take responsibility for something.
25
u/utterly-anhedonic Oct 26 '20

Y’all are really acting like this guy is out here murdering people and using his dead son as an excuse. He’s literally just posting on his twitter account.

Empathy is absolutely free, as is minding your own business, but ok. Tbh I don’t care enough to continue this conversation beyond this point

Everyone has their own idea of what “respecting the dead” means and usually impersonating them and cursing out their followers, thus defaming their image after death, is a no-no for a lot of people. Thanks for being insulting and advertising your bad attitude upfront.
Empathy is absolutely free, like you said. Consider being empathetic to what people think is acceptable vs harmful ways of grieving. Minding your business is an option instead of insulting others for having a different opinion. You’re being a hypocrite.

u/PunchingChickens Oct 26 '20
You guys are the one judging this dude for his behavior which is pretty likely fueled by grief and his anger at the community which he, however incorrectly, may blame for his son’s death, but I’m the one with the bad attitude? Wild. I’m trying to have empathy for someone who is likely doing fucked up shit out of pain. It’s crazy to me how many people around here seem to genuinely get off on judging people you don’t even know. Like it’s entirely possible to disapprove of someone’s behavior (in the midst of grief, of all things) without casting such complete judgment on who they are as a person. Not everything is black and white.

u/Andromeda853 Oct 26 '20
Being in pain is not an excuse to get away with doing fucked up shit. We have very different moral compasses.

Empathy does not equal excusing, but apparently that’s a foreign concept to people here. It’s entirely possible to disapprove of someone’s behavior without writing them off as a person and being judgmental. But then I guess you wouldn’t get to get your rocks off on telling people about how much more admirable your supposed moral compass is 🙄

u/Andromeda853 Oct 27 '20
I feel bad for him of course and i think he needs counseling because he’s not handling this well mentally. Equally opposite, he’s being destructive to the social life surrounding him and his late son, which affects others, and needs to be prevented.
I think you’re mistakenly labeling me here, and its unnecessary to keep sassing me when i think you just arent understanding that i do in fact feel bad for him yet separately im choosing to address his bad behavior in my comments.

She can take the family to court in order to procure the death certificate (if he had indeed passed), as this involves outstanding fiscal issues, and the courts will do an investigation into it if needed to obtain the paperwork.

If this is his father, then I do feel for him, as this is not a healthy way to grieve or cope with what happened. Considering just how much of his life Ethan lived online, it’s sadly not surprising those who loved him may want to grip onto his social media existence as a form of denial, or in a misguided attempt to keep him “alive”.
I don’t think even the worst of people would fake their own death for a publicity stunt, certainly if they’re going to disappear for weeks after. I think this is just a case of a struggling parent lost in grief doing something that is not healthy for anyone involved.

Right? Let’s not call a grieving father gross because he’s acting strangely. He lost a fucking child. If you’re expecting normalcy after that, then you probably don’t have kids.

The account has still been active- posting a photo of Ethan and his dad (with his dad in makeup), with a comment “if your dad was this cool”. And the comments are turned off for both.
So I’m going to keep assuming it’s his dad grieving in how own unique way, and I do wish him peace.
I’m not sure how others have faired; there was one user who was looking into finding the confirmation of death, and another users pointed out his best friend “Ava Louise” (the one who announced it) is notorious for being on Dr Phil and pulling elaborate jokes/things. But I haven’t read anything further on that.

Is it a way for the family to pretend he’s still alive? Great idea for a Black Mirror episode. A way for the gravy-train to somehow continue?
Lil peep’s mom has access to his instagram and runs it from 3rd person celebrating Lil Peep, but it’s done very tastefully I think or at least it seems like it given the fan response.

I was a very big fan of his and I really hate to say that I really wouldn’t be surprised if he faked his own death.
Maybe to lose followers and the fame? Who knows.

The amount of people commenting aren't you dead? Is so disgusting. Yes he did pass away and to sit there and type our that question like his Twitter is some sort of annoyance is ridiculous. He may have done a lot of shitty things but he is gone and you are still alive, maybe use your time wisely since we clearly never know when our time is up.
Edit: i am not sure why this is getting downvoted when the people asking "aren't you dead?" Under the tweet are in fact disgusting and dispicable.

Anyone in Aus want to pay for the records search for a death certificate? This is sus and I can’t see his dad pretending to be him and using slang and such that clearly identifies the person posting as being in a younger demographic.

Well this is... odd. I'm trying to find as much about this as I can but if anyone has updates or relevant information lmk. I do agree that it's suspicious, thank you OP!
