[@ramblingnomad]

Thank you both for sharing with us today. I am a grandfather of 75, and for several years now I have been following the adventures of so many wonderful young adventurers, like yourselves, doing and visiting so many amazing things and places, and although have never actually met any of you, I feel like I know you as friends. Lee and Max were one of the couples I found on youtube several years ago. As Max was a fellow Aussie, it just made the connection a little more special. When I got the news a few days ago I was stunned, and extremely saddened, firstly for the loss of a beautiful and wonderful young person, but also for the impact such news would have on all you adventurers out there. Like so many people, I am constantly angered by the totally unnecessary bullying by the trolls of the social media world, and also their followers who give them the air to continue their cruel actions. I say to you both, take strength from knowing that you have so many more followers who support you, love you and what you are doing, than the small few who may choose to bully you. Take care, give each other lots of hugs. And keep doing whatever gives you pleasure, and look forward to the arrival of your first little bubs !!! Cheers folks....Happy Easter

[@cynjim88]

Lee’s death hit hard... it’s amazing how much emotion you can have for someone you never met... as a supporter you feel like you know them. Love & prayers to her and her family and friends! Rest in the sweetest peace Lee.. ❤️🙏

[@lindacarson4034]

Well said. I didn't know Lee, but feel like I know her through all of her videos. It is very difficult to sit with what has happened. She brough a lot of light into so many peoples lives and I hope she now has peace and light.

[@brigitte2348]

RIP Lee Why so many people has so much pleasure at hurting people. I do too suffer from depression, surrounding myself with love made all the difference in the world. So sorry for Lee for not having that support beside her 24/7. She sounded like such a beautiful spirit and soul

@Louis Cyphre That's really upsetting to hear. Can't we do something about it? Did you report this group to KZbin? The police?

[@Megan.eco-Instinct]

You guys, I hadn't heard... until I saw this video. I have followed Lee for years - with Max and since their split. It almost feels odd because I sometimes feel like assuming grief that belongs to someone else is just ... not right. But I have so much grief. How I have been feeling since early today when I watched your wonderful and respectful video here, has almost surprised me. I'm heartbroken. I can't quite get past the tragedy of this. I'm nearly 60 years old. So much of what I am feeling is that, when I look at Lee, and Max, and Trent and Allie, and Eamon & Bec, so many others, and almost especially in you two beautiful souls, I see .... unrestrained promise. The idea that Lee could no longer see that in her life is devastating to me. There is a social media dynamic here that cannot be ignored. As a community, as humans clinging to a sense of decency that is rapidly vanishing, we need to start making certain demands of one and other. Cruelty has become a spectator sport on social media and the cost of that vicious sport is too high. Those of us who could never delight in the pain of others have to be willing to publicly shun those who do. The more that happens, the more socially unacceptable the behavior will become. We won't get anywhere with bureaucracy - laws or YT policies; the power behind that is too busy making money. This has to be handled in the public square. Those people earning a living from hurting people *will* eventually vanish under the glaring disdain of the larger community. We already know... evil triumphs when good men do nothing. I hope (the collective) we stop doing nothing.

[@AnnCashes]

Thank you Megan!! I’ve been following all these lovely “ kids” (61 here) and so heart broken over this. Our eta was “ All you need is love”. Hope we get back to that soon!

[@Megan.eco-Instinct]

@@AnnCashes " All you need is love " *Indeed* Carole. Thank you for responding to my comment; lovely to meet you. One of the many things I love about being "our age" is the fact that we lived through a time when people were keenly aware that their public behavior was a real statement to others regarding the type of person they were *and that was important* I miss those times when people would move heaven and earth to see to it that they never be thought of as inconsiderate, or rude, or inappropriately nosy, and they would certainly never do anything to make them appear mean-spirited. Most of that seems to be a product of a bygone era. Take care Carole and the very best to you and yours...

Thank you for opening up this way. It’s amazing how I didn’t know Lee personally, but it has put me in a head space I didn’t expect. I relate heavily to what you talk about here. You’ve allowed me to see the darker comments hidden from your channel, and while I’ve not received the same amount of negativity being a smaller channel, I’ve received the same level of negativity. The very worst thing anyone has said to me in my whole 40 years on this planet came from a KZbin comment, and that stays with you. It’s important to understand that we all have our battles and should treat each other as companions on the same planet, and not enemies. ❤️

[@Jalte7]

I can’t believe Lee is gone... I have struggled with depression most of my life and still to this day. But just knowing how people feel once they lost you, is something keeps me moving forward. Once you’ve lost someone. The thoughts of “what could I have done” Or “you don’t know what you have until it’s gone...’’ rings through your head. It is not that.- Same as you Jord and Kaylee It is also important to understand everyone is living their own life... they won’t know what is going on in your life. So many times I think about the fact that you are different to every person you meet. Most who are struggling, including myself, don’t show that side of them. - Please just love those around you and appreciate them for what they do. You never know what they are going through. If you would not say something to someone’s face, don’t comment it. Not only that. If you are having those thoughts, take a look at yourself.None of us are perfect and if you are watching/enjoying someone’s content. Support them. Helpful advise and constructive criticism is important for growth, but just understand everyone is still learning. Day by day. Stay strong and keep moving forward

Hey guys I have been following you for at least two years when I can. There are lots of negative people out there that have nothing better than to rejoice at your pain.

As much as you were compelled to make this video, I'm sure it was difficult to do. I, and so many others around the world who have been so profoundly impacted by Lee's death, deeply appreciate you guys doing this. Her death is the 2nd one I've dealt with in 2 weeks and I've been absolutely beside myself since I learned the horrible news. We all as a people have to do better to really make sure that we let others know that we are truly there for them. Not just in words so that the person in need doesn't feel embarrassed or burdensome. This pandemic has forced us to be so physically isolated from everyone. That means, we have to be that much more creative in how we positively reach out to one another. I hope with all my heart that that is at least the one thing good that comes out of this widely felt tragedy.

It’s not just about the negative comments or how people treat you.

The only solace that can be taken from this now is that lee has no more pain. Sleep tight princess❤️

Thank you. I can't quite get the words out. But I just wanted to say - thank you.

[@blackhawk69100]

People think it's about negative comments or how you are affected by situations or tradagies ect ect. And those things are all true. But true depression is in-between the lines. It's the nagging voice and feeling in the background when you at a party, it's blackness that surround you when you are being shown affection, it's staring back at you every time you look in the mirror, it's in all those moments your alone........ And it's at its worst when you are so tired. It's unrelenting, it never stops and it never goes away. It hurts everyone around you and you try to reach out but you find yourself making excuses not to let them in. Not to hurt them, but to protect them from how you really feel. I didn't know Lee at all. But I know depression. Sometimes people give away all their light, and unfortunately save none for themselves. Everyone can say they could have helped her, but the truth is in that one split second, that one moment we're it was to much............ Nothing could save her. She just simply wanted it to stop. It's not right and it's truly tragic. But that's the truth of it. If you have depression, it will find a way to get at you wether it's cyber bullying, tragic event, abuse, or even of you've had an amazing life or born with a silver spoon. It doesn't care about wealth, race or religion. It doesn't care who you are at all. If it sees that one slight opportunity, it will take you. I'm not saying she didn't stand a chance, but people have to understand what depression really and just how deep in you it grows it's vines.

I've never had any connection to Lee other than watching her on KZbin, instagram and listening to her on Eamon and Bec's podcast where she delved into her struggle with depression. Yet, her death affected me on a deep level. She had such a beautiful essence and it's so hard to believe that she is no longer in the world. People probably felt a lot of jealousy of her beauty and her perfect life portrayed on social media. I'm so sad they affected her so deeply. But I do believe her depression goes much deeper than that after hearing the podcast earlier this year.

Guys, I can hear the pain in your voices. Lee was a very special girl & this is heartbreaking. Humans can be cruel to each other, it’s a confusing trait, because we’re taught to treat others how you would wish to be treated, but many people don’t aspire to that. It’s also heartbreaking to hear that you’ve been brought low by comments on your videos. Your videos are a light in so many people’s lives, please never underestimate the good you are doing for the world, just by being yourselves & letting us follow along with your day to day. Your relationship is ‘goals’, as they say, not many couples could live & work together, yet get on as well as you do. I’m sure there are some not-so-great-times behind the scenes, no relationship is all roses!, but no one could fake the love, respect & joy between the two of you.

[@idbek]

It’s nice for the community to come together and talk about this. How one wishes for a different outcome. Sending hugs to everyone grieving.

[@elainebarefoot9564]

Lee has had a great impact on my life. You guys putting your live out for us all to see. You’re all so so brave. A big thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

[@scubyhurst1119]

my mother always told me growning up . if you dont have anything nice to say then dont say anything at all. And i will always live by it.

[@katkohler]

Having an open heart brings highly receptive and sensitive emotions. It makes it very difficult to face negative feedback. Learning how to control emotions helps. Been there. Be kind to yourself and know that many more people love you than not. Love and appreciate you guys! 💕🙏🏼

[@glennarussell7653]

My heart aches this morning for my KZbin friends and Lee's loved ones. Please know you are in my prayers. And . . . just a note for the haters out there that leave their hateful words. Please seek some help for yourselves, because it is your words that could haunt you, for the rest of your life. R.I.P. Lee. Rest now, In Peace.

[@user-bh2fz5sf5e]

I just listened to her on E&B podcast.. she really sounded like she had worked thru it all.. she had so much insight and said all the right things... I feel like she just lost her place and she couldn't get back in it. Plus the added online opinions. I just feel so bad for eamon and bec. And her parents.. they all thought she was doing better.. God life sucks sometimes. Hope you guys keep it heads up.

Unfortunately, that can be the most dangerous time. Very often, after a plan has been made a suicidal person reaches a place of peace, thereby catching others off guard when the final act is committed, leaving a trail of tears for those left behind. 😥

[@Katie-ng9cw]

i think she may have felt like she needed to put on a front like she was doing okay. sometimes you can know all the right things to say but you don't truly feel them deep down.

Read a comment that a cyber-bully was particularly vicious & vile. They have since deleted their filth. Why are there such sadists?

[@chettaisbetta]

@@yousurf374 he preemptively took down his content. Do not use this space to defend him. She asked him multiple times to stop but he chose to continue to create negative content about her for monetary gain. He chose to make content ripping other people apart. That is by very definition cyber bullying.

[@chettaisbetta]

@@yousurf374 People learn to hide their pain. She spoke candidly about her struggles. Just because someone doesn’t “seem” depressed to you, doesn’t mean that they aren’t going through something. That is why we are taught to be kind because you never know what someone is going through.

[@girdygolden7041]

So sorry to hear of Lee's passing. Luved seeing her with Eamon and Bec. Praying for you all and her family. 😥💜

[@betseytaft9585]

My condolences to all affected. I know from personal experience that someone with depression can be very good at hiding it. Humans need to be kinder to one another. Prayers

[@mefford67]

*I only pray that Lee has found the peace she that she sought...* 🙏🏻

[@LindaMadisonPR]

We loved Lee and we love you both. 💜

[@bcomingfreenomad202]

RIP Lee. I’ve been following them, Trent/Allie and y’all for years and have seen how much y’all have grown. Depression is sadly taking so many lives. Mental health needs to be addressed more. Thank you for sharing 🙏🏼

[@kenandsamantha]

Sending all our love your way. Lee was the first introduction we had into van life a few years ago. She was an inspiration. This week was shocking and hard for the whole community. Making sure to send love and positivity through the internet to counter act the bad. It’s horrible that one negative comment outweighs 300 positive ones. You both are a light! Thanks for sharing your life with us ❤️

[@Gabrielle499]

Lee was a beautiful soul and so full of life. I only knew her through Eamon & Bec’s channel, and yet her passing brought me to my knees. It’s heartbreaking to hear the emotion in your voices. Please take care of each other. ❤️

[@theadventuresofthepupperzi1744]

I'm so sorry with your loss. She was a amazing soul.

[@lamare8565]

Lee is a bright star shining over all of us. 🌟 RIP Lee. We will miss you, comfort us with your memories when we are at our lowest. 💞🎈

[@jessicahotz5169]

I never met her but have followed her for years. You feel like you know them and the sting of their finality is deep. My heart and love to you guys and her family ❤️

[@debmac1173]

Lee was a beautiful soul and will be missed so much, her smile could make you smile and make you feel like an old friend (even those of us who only knew her from youtube). The internet can be a wonderful thing, but some of the evil people who use it can destroy people's lives and families. Please STOP and remember your words are a weapon! My prayers and hugs go out to all of Lee's family, friends, and love ones!

[@LeeAnneHardieFW]

You're making a difference in so many lives. So sorry for the loss of your friend. You're honoring her by lifting her up and addressing the bullying online, and anywhere. Blessings to you both and truly, love is all there is🙏🕉

[@Yoginivanlife]

Thanks so much for your love and light in this community. Love is our guide♥️

[@marlathomason-severs7049]

You guys are both amazing, amazing care you show to so many.

[@corinnabearman5820]

Guys I can feel your pain and sadness in more ways than one. The feeling you could have done something is awful. My sister attempted the same just a few days ago and I didn’t do anything when I felt her messages were a bit strange before she did it. Luckily she survived but that guilt will remain with me. So much love to you both. Please look after yourselves 💕xx

[@gbpine]

Corinna I’m so glad you’re sister survived. I hope you get help. Being in the same situation with my niece I know how much I need help coping after words. It has helped me so much be a better support for her.

[@corinnabearman5820]

@@gbpine thank you so much. I’m so pleased your niece didn’t succeed either and that you feel more able to support her now 🙏x

[@bethaniejify]

Oh. I’m so sorry to hear this. I was so excited that she was moving forward with a new build. I’ve watched some van couples and people struggle with negative commentary. What I learned is if you watch someone’s videos, you should offer something positive and like it. Because nobody is obligated to share these clips, and they are sweet, and helpful and uplifting. I’ve appreciated how honest you all are about your struggles as well as victories. Thank you for sharing this. We all struggle as human beings.

[@jessieandtalie]

Thank you for posting. Have been looking for a conversation and connection around this loss. Such a collective loss.💜

[@luciarojas9195]

So much love for you both. Keep strong and loving.

[@sjenx1]

You guys...You did such a great job of expressing your thoughts. Negativity can drain the soul. I could your sadness. May Lee’s family find peace and you guys as well. Hang in there.🙏🏾💖

[@reginapolo3357]

"I did then what I knew best, when I knew better, I did better". Maya Angelou. Be easy on yourselves guy, you already have a heavy load.

[@CathysVanlife]

I learned about this a few days ago and it has just affected me so much. I can’t put in to words the sorrow I feel. There are just no words to express it. Prayers to her dear friends and her family.

[@UrsulaP61]

I waited until today to watch your video. I hurt with you all, even I never met Lee in person. I started watching van life with max and Lee and then the others followed. Jordan you are a wonderful young men (I have 5 kids, oldest 31 yrs, 28,25,22 and 16) and it shows how much you care about people. Kayle you are amazing and so brave. I love watching your journey. May God continue to bless you both (three).

[@michelebrown4345]

I suffer from major depression and with an anxiety disorder and panic attacks.. every day is a struggle.. when I heard about Lee I just cried.. because I know that pain inside and the thoughts.. I fight this disease everyday.. excepting it was the best thing I ever did.. I learned so many tools that help.. and my mantra is tomorrow is a new day.. thank you for making this video for lee.. and about depression and anxiety.. so many people suffer from it.. some in silence and some like myself openly.. thank you again.. I hope you both have a relaxing week off.. peace always

[@somadevo]

Infinite Loving Blessings and Joy, Michele

[@eirika2001]

And here you are Michelle, reaching out to comfort these good souls in the face of your own struggle with Lee’s passing. You seem a very good person and inspiring. :)

[@kristinlink2970]

I hear your pain, knowing that she was struggling and wishing you had done something. It was a beautiful tribute and advocating for better behavior is an important way to honor her memory. Take care of yourselves.

[@robynbeacham6459]

Thank you for making this video you two are very inspirational and the love that you pour into the community is amazing!.im sure that Lee loved everything kind word that you gave her! Love you guys hugs and prayers Robyn B

[@breauxbuilds1928]

You guys are amazing! I admire your hard work, determination, and overwhelming positivity. It's always sad to hear something like this, and it never gets any easier. Wishing you and everyone the best!

[@allisonsherman7231]

I got you. Your videos are very uplifting. Like you, I don’t read the other comments when I leave one. Beautiful tribute from a great and meaningful friendship. Rest in ❤️Lee and you guys.....what an amazing journey you are on. Love you!!!!!

[@hopeheavenonplanetearth1417]

You did a beautiful job with your message🙏 A lot of us feel we wish we could have done something to help her. I wish I had watched her channel more. She was a lovely woman and will be missed. This past year has taken a toll on us, and many of our KZbin families don’t always understand how you are helping us...

[@carenburmeister5002]

Thank you for addressing the huge challenge of depression and anxiety. It takes courage to make yourself vulnerable and I admire that. You’re right - it’s important for us to have the backs of those who are being bullied online. Your transparency, kindness and compassion are part of why I love you two!

[@bethdivsalar6986]

You both are awesome. Thank you for reaching out with kindness. I home many people that this to heart and think kindness before they comment.
