TikTok is mourning the loss of a young star.
It is reported that Joshua Blackledge, who boasted over a million followers on a social media platform, tragically passed away at his residence in North Carolina on the 18th of March. At the time of his death, he was only 16 years old.
According to an obituary from Noe-Brooks Funeral Home, Joshua was a junior at West Carteret High School, actively participating in both wrestling and track. Beyond these activities, he nurtured a deep affection for nature, particularly spending time near water – be it fishing or boating with companions. Moreover, cars and trucks held a special place in his heart as well.
His family members mentioned that Joshua was fond of assisting his mother, Jackie Blackledge, in various activities such as cooking, tending the garden, and taking care of outdoor chores. They also noted that he possessed a lively spirit, frequently surprising others with acrobatic feats like backflips.
The obituary noted that Joshua was admired for his zest and passion for living, and it expressed hope that his memory would provide solace to those grieving his departure.
Besides his mom, Joshua is also left behind by his dad, Jonathan Blackledge, and his sibling, Josiah Blackledge.
At present, no specific information about the reasons behind Joshua’s passing or any official statements have been disclosed. Our team at TopMob News has attempted to contact both the police department and the coroner’s office for comments, but we have yet to receive a response.
On March 14th, Joshua’s latest TikTok video showcased him and his companions near a white pickup truck. This was where countless admirers gathered to share their shock and sorrow upon learning about the youngster’s demise.
As one user wrote, alongside a broken heart emoji, “Rest in peace. You’re gone too soon.”
After the demise of Joshua, his long-term girlfriend Emmie Gillikin – whom he had been dating since the previous summer and frequently showcased on his TikTok – published a touching tribute to her deceased partner, compiling snippets from various stages of their relationship.
Emma’s recent tribute reads, ‘I miss that sweet boy so much right now.’ She never imagined being here without Josh, as he taught her the true meaning of love. Even though she was young, he always managed to put a smile on her face.
Beyond expressing her shock at his absence, she also mentioned, “Josh was cherished by all who knew him; he was an exceptional friend, and above all, the finest boyfriend. Oh, Josh, we yearn for your presence so deeply. Guard us and shield us from harm.
