In a GoFundMe, Alla further mourned his daughter, writing, "I only wish she would have spoken to me about her stress and the thoughts of suicide. We could work thru this."

The TikTok star's mom, Jennifer Shaffer, shared her heartbreak on Facebook.
"I'm so heartbroken. I really can't believe you're going," she wrote. "I wish I was waiting on you to say it was a prank but it's not. I wishing could have died instead of u ...rip my angel. Everyone talks about our bad times but never talk about the good times #babygirldee."
