The cause of death of budding TikTok star Eva Evans has been revealed.

The 29-year-old was found hanged in her New York City apartment with a suicide note left behind, law enforcement sources told TMZ.

The outlet reported a friend found her body late Saturday night after previously seeing her on Friday morning, and checked on her as they had a key to her apartment.

Sources said she appeared to have hung herself from the ceiling in her living room. The law enforcement sources claimed that the friend who found Evans told police they didn’t know her to be depressed or struggling with poor mental health.

Evans was pronounced dead at the scene, as tributes poured in for the promising influencer.

‘Yesterday my family received news that our sweet, fabulous, creative, caring, hilarious Eva, my beautiful sister, has died,’ the Club Rat creator’s sister Lila Joy said in a post revealing the tragic news.

‘After 24 hours, I still find myself in a constant cycle of denial and acceptance, so I know how unbelievable and hard to process this news will be,’ added Joy.

‘I wish I had Eva here now to refer to because she would have better words and know how to say what I don’t,’ she continued.

Joy concluded, ‘I am keeping this brief, so we can plan for the next few days, but you’ll be hearing a lot more from me on how much Eva means to me and just how different the world will be without her.’

The comments section was filled with an outpouring of love and support from those who knew Evans.

‘The loss is unfathomable, to those of us lucky enough to have known her brilliance and goodness, but also to the world, which is not the place it was meant to be without her,’ wrote one person.

Another added, ‘I’m so so so sorry for your loss. She was one of a kind. Her art and stories brought so many of us NY’rs joy and humor during tough times. This icon will be missed.’

‘Heartbreaking. Eva was a beautiful and brilliant soul,’ a friend wrote. ‘I remember meeting her years ago at 4 in the morning and talking about our favorite works of art. The world has known no one like her and never will.’

Evans accumulated more than 305,000 followers on TikTok, where she frequently posted about life in New York City as a rising filmmaker.

Last year, Evans debuted a five-episode series on Prime Video titled Club Rat, which she wrote, directed and starred.

She played a ‘self-absorbed influencer’ who ‘attempts to re-enter the chaotic New York City dating scene after a candid video of her humiliating breakup goes viral.’

Evans starred alongside Noa Fisher and Marcela Avelina in the episodes, which ranged from five to 10 minutes in length.

‘I’m so grateful to the cast and crew who not only made some on screen magic, but also made the shoot an unforgettable and special experience in and of itself. I LOVE YOU ALL!!’ she wrote on Instagram when production wrapped in June 2023.

The first episode of Club Rat is available to watch for free on Evans’ YouTube, and the full series is available to purchase on Prime Video.
