Following the passing of controversial social media personality Kevin Samuels at the age of 57 in May, the Fulton County Medical Examiner’s Office has officially attributed his death to hypertension, classifying it as a natural cause.
It was reported by TMZ that the cause of death was determined as a result of hypertension, with Atenolol, a beta-blocker often prescribed for individuals with hypertension, being specifically mentioned in the report.
The Medical Examiner’s report indicated evidence of hypertension, citing a thickening of the heart’s chambers. It also noted that Samuels was taking Atenolol, a drug commonly used for treating hypertension.
This pronouncement should put an end to any speculation about suspicious circumstances surrounding his passing.
It is worth recalling that Samuels was in the company of an unidentified woman at the time of his death in May.
News of Samuels’ death initially circulated on social media, with the influencer’s mother expressing her dismay at discovering her son’s passing in this manner.
Shortly after his death, Samuels made a posthumous appearance in an episode of Donald Glover’s Atlanta, where he portrayed the character Robert “Shea” Lee, sparking widespread discussion on various platforms.
The news of Samuels’ passing was first brought to light by TMZ, which meant his mother, Beverly Samuels-Burch, learned about the tragic event through social media.
“That was a terrible thing for social media to put out. I didn’t even know. I hadn’t even been notified,” she expressed to NBC News. “All I’m doing is requesting that people pray for us.”
Given the controversial nature of his relationship advice, Samuels’ passing led to criticism from some individuals, prompting T.I. to address the negativity on social media and urge others to refrain from disrespecting the deceased.
“The shit is a travesty of justice,” the rapper emphasized. “I can’t stand it, I can’t stand it. I ain’t gon’ let y’all bully this dead man. We gon’ let this man rest in peace.”
