Buttermore and Nippard appeared together in numerous YouTube videos during their decade-long relationship. The two got engaged in 2022 and Nippard posted a photo of the two of them on Valentine’s Day.
Nippard’s Instagram and YouTube accounts closed comments on posts announcing Buttermore’s death, but fans flooded the comments to show their support for Nippard, a former bodybuilder and professional weightlifter.
“Heaven gained an incredible angel. Someone who cared deeply about others. Someone who cared deeply about others. Praying for you Jeff and your family,” fellow influencer Buff Bunny posted on Nippard’s Valentine’s Day post.

“I’m so sorry. I’ve followed Stephanie for years, what a beautiful soul. Praying for you and your loved ones,” another user wrote.
Buttermore posted nutrition and fitness content, including videos about her personal struggles with eating disorders and mental health. She gained more prominence during her self-titled “All In” challenge, where she ate over 10,000 calories per day to promote healthy weight gain in women and body positivity. Nippard’s most recent video, released last week, was about body dysmorphia.
Buttermore stopped posting to social media and YouTube in March 2024, citing improved mental health from being off social media.
