Tytyana was featured on the WE TV reality series Growing Up Hip Hop and her addiction struggles were documented on the show.
Her older brother Romeo Miller, also appeared on an episode of the reality series, which showed him with his dad trying to convince Tytyana to enter rehab. However, she told her family: “I don’t need to go to rehab. I feel like I could actually do good without rehab.”
Following her death, Romeo remembered his “amazing sister” on Instagram.
“Our family is dealing with an overwhelming grief for the loss of my little sister Tytyana,” Romeo wrote. “We respectfully request some privacy so that our family can grieve. We appreciate all of the prayers, love, and support, and although this is sad times, I’m forever grateful for the memories I did have with my amazing sister. Love on your loved ones, life is short. The silver lining, I know she’s in a way better place and finally at peace and free.”
According to TMZ, paramedics arrived at a home in the San Fernando Valley section of Los Angeles at 2:30 a.m. Saturday and found Tytyana deceased at the scene.
The LA County coroner’s office later ruled Tytyana’s death was caused by an accidental fentanyl overdose.
