TikToker Kyle Marisa Roth’s cause of death revealed
Kyle Marisa Roth, the TikToker who died at age 36 in early April, passed away from cardiac arrhythmia due to myocardial fibrosis.
TMZ reported Tuesday that Maryland’s chief medical examiner declared Roth had an irregular heartbeat caused by scarring on the heart muscle which resulted in her “natural” death.
Roth also tested positive for diphenhydramine, also known as Benadryl, and mitragynine, an alkaloid used for pain management, per TMZ.
There were no signs of alcohol in Roth’s toxicology report.
Roth, who amassed over 175,000 followers on the app thanks to her hot takes on celebrities, had previously shared that she was a colon cancer survivor.
