Emilie Kiser recently provided a glimpse into her life with husband Brady Kiser as they navigate their relationship following the tragic death of their son, Trigg. On December 24, 2023, Emilie shared a TikTok video featuring highlights from a holiday road trip with their family, including their 9-month-old son, Theodore. In the video, Brady, aged 28, can be seen briefly walking by as Emilie, 26, prepares for the journey. She captioned the post, “Hope you all have a safe holiday, and as always, thank you for the love, support, and kind words. They mean the world, always❤️.”
According to a source speaking with Us Weekly, Emilie and Brady have been “thoughtfully working on their relationship” for several months. The source emphasized the emotional toll of losing Trigg, stating, “They have gone through the worst tragedy you could ever experience as parents and they are doing their best to come together as a family.”
Prioritizing Family During the Holidays
This holiday season holds particular significance for the Kiser family as they strive to maintain a sense of normalcy amidst their grief. An insider noted, “This holiday season is so important to bring a sense of normal for their family.” Despite the challenges, they are committed to keeping their personal lives private while focusing on being the best parents possible to Theodore.
Tragedy struck in May when news emerged that Trigg had died after being discovered unconscious in the family’s swimming pool at their residence in Arizona. Following the incident, authorities submitted a criminal charge recommendation for Brady, who was present at the time. The Maricopa County Attorney’s Office later stated there was “no likelihood of conviction.” Brady’s legal representative publicly thanked officials in July for their thorough investigation, characterizing the incident as “a tragic accident.”
Emilie has gradually resumed sharing her experiences on social media after a hiatus. In August, she opened up about her profound loss, stating, “Loss of this magnitude feels impossible to put into words.” She described the struggle to process the grief, saying, “I’ve spent days, weeks, months trying to find them and also take the time I’ve needed to digest the loss of my baby.”
Reconnecting with Supporters
In her emotional message, Emilie reflected on Trigg’s impact on her life, expressing, “Trigg is our baby and our best friend. The light and spirit he brought into this world was bright, pure, joyful and undeniable. We miss him every second of every day and continuing forward often feels unbearable.”
As she continues her healing journey, Emilie expressed a desire to reconnect with her online community. In a September video, she said, “I have missed getting to chat with you guys every day. I really do love this community we have here.” She aims to share her journey while also being mindful of her family’s privacy, stating, “I’m just doing my best every day to figure this out, figure my life out. I’m just taking it day by day.”
The Kiser family’s story highlights the profound impact of personal loss and the importance of community support during difficult times. As they navigate their grief, Emilie and Brady remain focused on their family and the memories of their beloved son Trigg.
