The world of social media, often defined by cheerful perfection, went suddenly and tragically silent. Just three days after celebrating his ninth wedding anniversary, food influencer Michael Duarte, known to millions as @FoodWithBearHands for his wholesome BBQ content, passed away at the age of 36.
His death, described by loved ones only as a 'horrible incident' while travelling in Texas, has left his immediate family shattered and his vast online community reeling.
