Bella Bradford, 24, shares final TikTok of heartwarming farewell after dying from cancer

The TikToker left her last posthumous video, “Get Ready With Me,” in which she sincerely wished viewers to live a “beautiful and amazing life.”

Bella Bradford, whose page often featured unboxings and fashion shows, recorded message shortly before her deathwhich, according to the post, happened on October 15th. The video was published on her page on October 31.

Earlier, a 24-year-old girl said that she was diagnosed with a rare form of cancer of the jaw muscle.

“I have terminal cancer and unfortunately by now my life has come to an end and I have passed away,” she says at the beginning of the final video, which was filmed as a selfie video. “But I wanted to do one final song, ‘Get Ready With Me.’ I love doing it and I love fashion.”

Bradford’s latest post introduced her followers to her latest look featured on the platform: a dress from St. Agni, which she describes as “one of my favorites,” paired with a cardigan, flats and a baseball cap.

“Thank you guys so much for this wild and wonderful ride. I hope you all have a wonderful and amazing life and I wish the best to each and every one of you,” she says before blowing a kiss. “With love.”

The post’s caption included an additional farewell message, thanking her followers for their love and support during the final stages of her life.

“Filming these videos has really given me a sense of purpose these past few months and has also connected me with a very kind community of people,” the post reads. “I wish you all a wonderful life and please (remember) live each day with as much meaning as the next. What a privilege it is to grow old.”

“Thank you for allowing me to be myself on this platform, I truly felt excited every day to come here and bond over our shared love of life and fashion. Love always, Bella.

The post concluded with a postscript listing the brands mentioned in the video, which Bradford joked was included because “I still have to give the people what they want.”

Bradford’s followers flooded her post with an outpouring of emotion, leaving messages filled with grief and gratitude for the messages she conveyed to them.

“Absolutely heartbreaking!” the user wrote in response. “I really enjoyed watching your videos. Rest in peace, little angel.”

“What a beautiful farewell she gave us, rest in heaven angel Bella,” one responded.

“My heart goes out to everyone who cared for her and loved her,” another added. “You could tell what a shining light she was. Tomorrow I will get up before sunrise and go watch a beautiful sunrise in memory of her.”

Bradford has previously used the “Get Ready With Me” format, often called GRWM, to talk about progression of her cancer.

In May 2024, while applying makeup to her face, Bradford spoke about her diagnosis and how she discovered her love for fashion during treatment.

“When I was 22, I was diagnosed with a really rare form of jaw muscle cancer,” she explained. “This was in 2021, I thought they were my wisdom teeth, but they weren’t.”

“I found that over the long period of treatment, I fell in love with fashion and became really passionate about, you know, keeping up with the fashion industry,” she added.

She also touched on managing your energy and gave followers advice on how to support anyone in their life who may be sick.

“My biggest advice to anyone who has a friend who is sick or anything like that is to just reach out to them,” she explained. “Even if you’re not that close, just send a message like, ‘You don’t have to respond to this, but I’m thinking about you.’ I love receiving messages like this.”
