YouTuber Alysha Burney dies at 25 on 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day trip in Mexico and devastated brother reveals cause of death

Popular YouTuber Alysha Burney died while vacationing in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, one day before her 25th 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day.

She died after suffering an asthma attack while she was asleep, according to her brother, Charles Burney.

Following online speculation about how she died, he told FOX4 that she did ‘not do drugs’ and was a ‘self-loving and happy individual who cherished her life and was looking forward to the upcoming year’s plans.’

‘She was in Mexico to celebrate her 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡day. She was a very classy young woman,’ he said. ‘There’s a spread of misinformation online, stating different things based on speculation. These sources lack credibility and should not be believed. My sister did not engage in environments that would lead to such situations.’

Charles also praised his sister for never being ‘selfish with her knowledge’ and living life as a ‘very open book.’

‘Alysha was very goal-oriented, creative, and passionate about giving back. She graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Digital Media Production and was working towards her graduate degree,’ he noted.

You’re my family, and your family made me feel like family. You’re my best friend on this planet, and I’ll always remember and defend your name.’
