Parenting influencer Emile Kiser’s husband was ‘watching basketball after placing $25 bet as son, 3, drowned in pool’
A PARENTING influencer’s husband was watching a basketball game he allegedly bet $25 on when his son tragically drowned in the family’s pool, cops said.
TikTok star Emilie and her husband Brady Kiser’s son died on May 18 after falling into the family’s pool at their home in Arizona.
New details about his death were revealed by Arizona police on Friday in a report alleging Brady, 28, was watching an NBA playoff game and had left their son Trigg unsupervised for over nine minutes.
Trigg was “in the water for about seven of those minutes” before Brady found him unconscious in the water, the report states. The tot died six days later in hospital.
Brady was caring for Trigg and the couple’s newborn son, Theodore, while Emily, whose wholesome family content has attracted millions of followers, was out with friends, according to the police report.
Speaking to officers after the incident, he said he lost site of the boy for about “three” or “five” minutes.
“I didn’t have a clock, obviously, I don’t know the exact time, but it was moments, it wasn’t minutes it was moments, it wasn’t that he had been out of sight for long,” he told cops.
CCTV footage, however, showed Trigg was unsupervised for at least nine minutes, the report said, adding that the boy had been playing with an inflatable chair before he accidentally fell into the pool.
Police initially suggested Brady be charged with one count of child abuse but the Maricopa County Attorney’s Officer later pulled this as it was deemed there was “no reasonable likelihood of conviction”.
Kiser’s lawyer previously said he was reassured by the county attorney’s “thorough investigation and confirming that this was a tragic accident”.
According to the report, Brady told officers he wasn’t on his phone before the drowning and, while a basketball game was on the TV, he wasn’t paying attention to it.
The dad told police he last saw his son in the backyard through a window. It was only when he went to get a drink that he noticed the boy in the pool.
He “acted immediately” and performed CPR on the child – leaving him “swaddled on the ground in the patio area”, the report said.
There is “no evidence” the dad failed to act but “it is clear Brady’s attention was divided,” it added.
The report’s release comes after Emilie pushed to have the case sealed because of her large online presence.
She reportedly argued that leaving the material public could open the door for social media sleuths to create disturbing AI recreations – similar to viral content generated after other high-profile deaths, like the Idaho college murders.
In his ruling, Judge Whitten declared: “Specific material harm to her and her family outweighs the negligible public interest in those particular portions of the report.
“The narrow redaction of those sections strikes an appropriate balance between transparency and human dignity.”
Kiser’s attorney, Shannon Clark, later told the Mail Online: “We’re grateful to [the judge] for carefully balancing the important interests at stake and allowing a narrow but meaningful redaction to the Chandler police report, removing two pages that detail the graphic final moments of Trigg’s life.
“These redactions do not alter any material facts of the accident, but they protect the dignity of a little boy whose memory should reflect the love and light he brought to the world.
“From the start, this has been about protecting Trigg and the family’s ability to grieve privately.
“This decision allows them, and the public, to remember him for the beautiful life he lived, not the tragic way it ended.”
Emilie has not commented on the incident.
Brit dad ‘who tried to drown his daughter-in-law turned girlfriend in pool’ will be charged with attempted murder in US
A BRIT dad accused of trying to drown his daughter-in-law will be formally charged with attempted murder in the US.
Mark Gibbon, 62, was arrested at the luxury Solterra Resort in Florida last Sunday after allegedly forcing 33-year-old Jasmine Wyld’s head underwater “multiple times” in a furious row over his will.
The wealthy lighting engineer – who has worked with Mick Jagger, Ed Sheeran, Sam Smith and the late Queen – is expected to apply for bail but may be refused it, as US prosecutors reportedly see him as a “flight risk”.
Mr Gibbon, of Beaconsfield, Buckinghamshire, has already appeared in court on two battery charges, each carrying $1,000 bail.
But a source said his attempted murder hearing is “a different level of seriousness” as he is expected to be charged tomorrow.
The insider told Mail on Sunday: “He could technically be eligible for bail but because of his wealth and the fact he is a British citizen a judge may consider him too high a flight risk.
“If bail were to be considered then he would have to surrender his passport and have to agree to wear a monitoring device.”
Officials at Polk County Prison refused to comment on his detention conditions for safety reasons, but he is expected to appear before the judge in orange prison overalls.
“He will be taken from his cell and transported to court in shackles and handcuffs but they may be removed inside the courtroom at the discretion of the judge,” the insider added.
Wyld’s nine-year-old daughter is said to have leapt into the pool to try to “save” her mother.
Police reports claim Gibbon’s alleged attack left her with scratches and bruising.
Both Gibbon and Wyld told police they are not romantically involved, although detectives are reportedly probing claims they have been lovers for years.
Neighbours in Beaconsfield described Wyld as Gibbon’s “girlfriend” and said she was often seen at his £800,000 semi-detached home.
One neighbour told The Sun: “Everybody is shocked by this.”
Another, who said she was Wyld’s friend, recalled: “Jasmine used to stay here a lot with the children. But I don’t want to say much more because she is a friend of mine.”
Family insiders claim tensions erupted years ago when Gibbon’s son Alex allegedly found Wyld in his father’s bed.
“About four years ago there was a big fall-out,” one source the Daily Mail.
“Alex went up the stairs and found Jasmine in his father’s bed. They had a massive row. It’s torn the family apart… there’s been so much bad blood between Alex and his dad.”
Alex, 32, and Wyld separated in 2021 but share two young children.
The feud deepened when Alex was jailed for driving an £80,000 Porsche Cayenne into his father during a public row.
He was released six months ago, and father and son no longer speak.
Gibbon, who also runs hairdressing business Sage Hairdressing, allegedly pushed Wyld underwater during the Florida row after telling her she was not the main beneficiary of his will.
He reportedly admitted pushing her but denied trying to kill her, claiming they had both been drinking, she slapped him, and the situation escalated.
Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said: “We expect vacationers to behave while they visit with us, just as we expect our life-long residents to do the same.
“Because Mr Gibbon couldn’t control his anger he may find himself spending a lot more time in Florida than he had anticipated.”
If convicted on all charges, Gibbon could face up to 20 years in jail.
