“I am trying to hold on… He texted me a message, ‘Momma, you been the best… I love you,’” Aunt D revealed tearfully.
Shay and Bria’s mother, whose real name is Deana, added that the divers and rescue squad are looking for him, and the authorities suspect that he might have jumped off the bridge.

More about Aunt D’s latest crisis
On Monday, Aunt D went live on TikTok and revealed that her son, Chris (Shay and Bria’s brother), is nowhere to be found. She stated that she was returning from work when she witnessed that her son’s car was pulled over on a bridge.
When she identified the vehicle, police informed her that the occupant was missing and a rescue and recovery mission was underway. Aunt D also shared that she was unsure whether Shay’s recent seizure episode had an impact on Chris.
The TikToker mom mentioned that her son thanked her for being a great mother and acknowledged she had too much on her plate right now. According to her, Chris also texted everyone he was close to.
While certain YouTube channels, including Zayne Grey, claimed that the lifeless body of Chris was reportedly discovered in the waters, Aunt D has yet to confirm the same.
All you need to know about Shay and Bria

Shay earned social media fame in October 2024 after her video of wearing an Ariana Grande t-shirt, while engaging in a casual sibling fight with Bria, became viral. The following month, the singer-actress sent them a care package and a recorded video message.
“Hi, Shay. I love you so much. Your videos make me so happy. I sent you something. You should be getting it. I don’t know where it is, but it should be coming to you,” the message from Grande read.
This happened after Shay was overjoyed to learn that Ariana knew about her after content creator Markell Washington interacted with the artist at the Wicked premiere.
Later, on February 6, 2025, Shay and Bria met Ariana backstage during the pop icon’s appearance on the late-night show, Jimmy Kimmel Live! Shay even got the opportunity to sing with Grande. They performed her hit songs, Boy Is Mine and Boyfriend, alongside Popular from the soundtrack of Ariana Grande’s movie, Wicked.
A couple of days after Shay’s encounter with the R.E.M. Beauty founder, Aunt D defended the musician-actor in a live stream, calling her a “beautiful,” “lovely,” and “sweet” person. On February 10, she called out people for trolling Ariana Grande about her small stature and urged everyone to stop body-shaming and talking negatively about the Nickelodeon alum.
