The social media world is reeling after the sudden passing of 28-year-old TikTok sensation Jacinda Jenkins, who left behind two adorable daughters and a devoted mother fighting to cope with her loss. The news of Jenkins' untimely death on September 29 sent shockwaves through the online community, leaving fans and friends heartbroken.
According to an emotional video shared by Emily Kocik, Jenkins' mother, the family is still trying to come to terms with their devastating loss. "This is absolutely the worst thing I've ever had to do," Kocik said, her voice trembling with grief as she broke the news of Jenkins' passing on TikTok.
Kocik, who has been open about her struggles in caring for her granddaughters after Jenkins' untimely death, revealed that she's doing everything in her power to keep her daughter's memory alive. "I just want everybody to remember her for the person that she was – her big heart, her kindness, willing to help anybody out even when she was struggling," Kocik said.
Jenkins, who hails from Lewis Town, Pennsylvania, had built a massive following of over 200,000 fans on TikTok, where she shared her passion for fashion, lifestyle, and motherhood. Her content was always relatable, making her a favorite among young mothers and aspiring entrepreneurs.
But Jenkins' talents didn't stop at social media. She was also the proud owner of Harper's Haven Boutique, which she operated from Kentucky, selling custom-made T-shirts and scrunchies on online platforms like Etsy and Shopify. The boutique quickly gained popularity, with fans raving about her unique designs and exceptional customer service.
As a devoted mother to two young daughters, Harper and Dax, Jenkins' life was full of joy and love. Her Instagram feed is filled with adorable photos of her girls, showcasing the close bond she shared with them. Tragically, Jenkins will not be there to see her children grow up, but her memory will live on through their smiles.
An obituary released by Cooper Funeral Home described Jenkins' death as "sudden," leaving fans and friends reeling in shock. Kocik urged everyone to focus on the good memories they have of Jenkins rather than speculating about the circumstances surrounding her passing. "There's no blame to be made, there's no questions that need to be answered right now. The only thing we need to do is just remember her," she said.
Jenkins' final TikTok post was from August 15, where she shared an update on her family life. "Guys, we haven't been on here in a little bit," she began, before sharing the news that one of her daughters had fractured her arm. The video ended with Jenkins thanking her fans for their love and support.
As Kocik struggles to cope with the loss of her daughter, she's also planning a celebration of life, albeit a small one. "We've struggled, this has been awful, just absolutely awful," Kocik said, fighting back tears. "No parent should have to go through this, ever, and I hope no parent ever does again."
Jenkins is survived by her children, mother Emily Kocik, father Christopher Jenkins, half-brother Cullen Jenkins, maternal grandparents Samuel and Ruth Beatty, paternal grandparents Larry and Erma Jenkins, aunt Brett Beatty, uncle Mike Jenkins, and many cousins. The news of her passing has sent shockwaves through the online community, with fans taking to social media to pay tribute to this vibrant young woman who left an indelible mark on their lives.
