YouTube personality Tai Couture passed away Thursday after taking his own life.

Couture, whose real name was Tyree Williams, was also known for his work as a hairstylist and makeup artist, according to a GoFundMe created in his honor.

The YouTuber, who was openly gay, shared his battle with depression most recently in a Facebook post after the suicide of Nigel Shelby.

“My heart mourns for the pain, torment, and loneliness this baby felt preceding his suicide. My suicide attempt was only a little over a year ago when I cut my wrist with a knife and was hospitalized. Although bullying wasn’t my trigger I know firsthand how it feels to be desperate for the hurt to end. I pray for Nigel’s family, friends, and the LGBTQ community. May the world continue to spread more unconditional love and not hate,” the post read.

Shelby, a ninth-grader, took his life back in April after he was bullied for being gay.

Although in Couture's Facebook post he denied bullying as a trigger for his own depression, it's unclear what events may have led to his death.

In a video back in 2016, the YouTuber shared his journey with depression after a near-fatal car crash.

According to Instinct Magazine, Couture had previously attempted suicide.

His family has created a GoFundMe to help with the costs of his homegoing.

Some of his fans and fellow YouTubers shared their condolences on Twitter.
