A beloved British TikTok star and mother of two, Jehane Thomas, has tragically died “unexpectedly” at the age of 30, her friends say.
Thomas, whose TikTok account has over 56,000 followers and 1.2 million views, passed away after suffering from “bouts of illness and migraines”, The Sun reports.
Her friends have rushed to pay tribute to the “kind and genuine soul” who was a “beautiful person inside and out”.
Thomas, from Doncaster in South Yorkshire, shared vlogs preparing packed lunches for her two boys as well as dinner tips, cleaning hacks and shopping hauls.
She also ran the arts and crafts business Print and Pack UK, which shared a touching tribute to its “driving force” following her death.
“This evening’s post is dedicated to you, my love, the driving force behind Print and Pack UK Ltd,” the business wrote on Facebook.
“P&P would not be what it is today without you, your enthusiasm, the relationships you’ve built with so many people, and the lives of all the people you’ve touched and inspired by simply being you – and the absolute TikTok Queen that you are.
“Life will never be the same without you and neither will P&P, but we have made a pact to do our utmost the continue to grow our successful business and support your boys for as long as P&P is going, and I already know we’ve got the support of your followers too.
“Thank you for your ongoing support. Jehane will live on through her boys, P&P and her followers. Let’s make her proud. Love and miss you always.”
Thomas’s best friend, Alyx Reast, said: “Jehane Thomas was a 30-year-old mum of two boys when she suddenly passed away on 17/03/2023.
“Despite suffering from migraines and bouts of illness for several months, her passing was totally unexpected and we are all absolutely heartbroken.
“Her two children have been left without their mum. Jehane – I promised I’d do what I can for those boys, so that’s what I’m vowing to do. I love you.”
Tributes have flooded in across social media.
Thomas’s friend and fellow parenting TikTok star Kelly Medina Enos said: “I really have no words for the news we have found out today.
“Thank you to your family and friends for allowing me to post my respects.
“My heart is broken, for you, for your family, friends and the boys. Fly high my angel. Life is so short. I love you.”
Another friend, Jade Newby, said: “After some very sad news today it just puts life into perspective even more!
“It scares me to death the thought of me not being here for my boy.
“You just never know what’s around the corner. I preach a lot that life is too short and we have to enjoy every single minute because we never know when our time is up.
“I would like to pay my respects to Jehane Thomas and send love to her friends, family and especially her baby boys. I cannot even begin to imagine. May you rest in peace.”
