Miami-based content creator Ben Bader has died. He was 25.
“The past few days have been the hardest few days of my entire life and I’ve never dealt with this before. Especially not the loss of someone as important as he was to me,” Bader’s girlfriend, Reem, shared in a TikTok video on Sunday, October 26, confirming his death.
“Ben was the kindest, most caring, most generous person I have ever met in my entire life,” she continued, through tears. “He genuinely loved every single person that he met and he was so positive all the time.”
She called Bader the “best boyfriend,” noting that he “cared so much about her” and was always present in her life.
“Please hold your loved ones extra tight and never forget to say I love you,” she captioned the 10-minute-long video. “Life is unforgiving sometimes. I’m still in disbelief. He was such a special person.”
When discussing how he died, Reem told followers that the circumstances are “still unknown” and said she was “in shock” over his death, noting that they had plans to get married and have kids. (Us Weekly can confirm that Bader’s cause of death is under investigation pending toxicology reports.)

“No one really knows and it seemed to have been extremely sudden,” she added. “There were really no signs of this happening — we were supposed to get dinner that night and he seemed so normal. I had just talked to him on FaceTime a couple hours before he passed and he was so happy and so normal and he was just smiling and being so funny.”
She continued, “I know this is selfish but I just feel like I devoted my everything to him and he devoted his everything to me, only for him to be taken away. … I feel so lucky to have been loved by him but I’m also so jealous of the people who didn’t know him well because it’s just so easy to just move on.”
Reem concluded her statement by saying that Bader was “not just the love of my life” but her “hero” and “inspiration.”
Bader had a combined following of over 200,000 million people across his multiple social media platforms. He was known for sharing financial advice with fans, while also posting lifestyle content.
Bader’s final Instagram post came more than a month ago when he celebrated his 25th birthday.
“All I want for my birthday is more of everything,” he captioned the carousel of photos.
Reem has continued to share photos and videos of Bader via Instagram Stories. One member of Bader’s family thanked Reem for being there for Bader.
“I am so happy he had you and found true love,” his brother, Justin Bader, wrote. “I know you were his soulmate. He was over the moon in love with you. You are my sister forever.”
Reem reposted the photo, writing: “So lucky to have met Ben’s wonderful family with him. Truly the best people.”
She posted a separate clip from Bader’s TikTok with another heartfelt caption.
“My angel,” Reem wrote. “I hope you can continue to guide me through life from above.”
