TikTok star Laura Lee Watts breaks down over teen daughter's tragic death in harrowing video

TikTok star Laura Lee Watts has announced her 15-year-old daughter tragically died after suffering a fatal seizure.

The 33-year-old broke down in tears as she shared the sad news that her daughter, who suffered from epilepsy, has died.

"I can not believe I’m making this video and I'm going to do my best to get through it," Laura Lee said.

"Most of you know I have three children, and my oldest is Savannah.

"She's 15 and she's epileptic. I know you guys really loved her, so I wanted to let you know that yesterday morning she had a fatal seizure and passed away."

The social media personality broke down in tears as she remembered her daughter's kindness.

People offered their condolences in the comment section, with singer Lizzo writing: "Sending you love."

Fellow TikTok personality Dylan Mulvaney said: "I am so sorry for your loss Laura Lee. I am sending you a blanket of love."

"I cant imagine the pain that you’re feeling, i’m so sorry laura," one fan commented. Another added: "I’m so sorry for your loss."

A third fan wrote: "Oh my goodness. I’m so so sorry. You and your family will absolutely be in my prayers. She was so beautiful and kind I love you guys."

Savannah was diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome, a rare and severe form of epilepsy, when she was three or four years old, according to her mum.

In a video posted in August 2021, Laura Lee discussed Savannah's health condition and said her seizures had progressed and become more severe over time.

"Her neurologist and I always hoped that she would just outgrow it as she went through puberty but she did not — actually it just got a lot worse," she explained in the video.

"She has different types of seizures and it’s really hard to control so you never know when she’s gonna have a seizure."
