Mexican TikTok star Aldo Miranda dead in apparent suicide: report

A Mexican TikTok star known for his comedic videos has died in a suspected suicide, according to reports.

Aldo Miranda, 32, was found on Tuesday hanging from a cable inside his home in La Paz, Baja California Sur, People Españo reported, citing the Command, Communications, Control, and Computing Center

The social media star’s management company confirmed his death in an Instagram post and insinuated he had taken his own life, but did not reveal a cause of death.

“Sometimes the internal battles are silent and we fail to see everything someone carries inside. Aldo decided to leave early, and though that hurts deeply, I want to remember him with the love, light, and joy he left in us. We are going to miss you like you have no idea,” Able Group wrote, along with a carousel of pictures of Miranda.

“Thanks for everything Aldo. You will always be in my heart and in the lives of many people who admire and love you. I am sure in heaven another star arrived to light the way for those up there.”

Miranda had more than 10 million followers on TikTok, where he was popular for posting comedy videos and re-sharing viral clips.

He posted a cryptic final Instagram story this week: “Thank you all for everything.”

Miranda was also a teacher at the Ministry of Public Education.

The star’s social media account was flooded with farewell tributes this week, and soccer team La Paz Athletic Club mourned his passing on Facebook with photo of Miranda in the team’s hat.

“Club Atlético La Paz regrets the sensitive passing of Aldo Miranda, a friend and important part of the La Paz family. You are part of this history and your legacy will remain forever. My condolences to family and friends,” the team wrote on Facebook.
