Her sister broke the news on Here For The Tea’s social media accounts.

“It is with a heavy heart and the most extreme sadness that I am sharing this news…my baby sister Sam @hereforthetea2 has passed away. She passed peacefully in her sleep yesterday.”

The tragic news of her death comes after Sam posted on social media that she would be taking some time off after getting to hear a piece of “devastating news”. This was on November 3rd. She passed away on 9th November on Saturday, peacefully in her sleep.

‘Here for the tea’ was one of the very first drama channels that trended on YouTube. Many consider her to be the pioneer for the drama and tea channels. Sam got a lot of praise for exposing a lot of questionable controversies around influencers. Whether it was their suspicious tactics in marketing and sales or some deeper drama going on between influencers, Sam was the first one to be there to report the news. She helped bring a lot of issues to light and set the blueprint for future tea channels and drama channels to follow. Sam made it important to make it clear that the influencers and YouTubers should be held accountable for their wrongdoings.

Plus, she did it at a time when exposing internet celebrities was not that mainstream. In many ways, Sam helped shape the online digital landscape of journalism and reporting. Especially when talking about influencer culture.
