Fitness influencer Chris O’Donnell, who boasted more than 840,000 followers on social media, died on Saturday at age 31.

The content creator’s death was confirmed in an online obituary.

The cause of O’Donnell’s death was not disclosed in the obituary, but the Maricopa Medical Examiner confirmed that the social media influencer passed away due to a gunshot wound to the head.

His death was ruled a suicide.

O’Donnell, also known as Creeohdee to his online followers, had amassed a sizable following of nearly one million fans on TikTok and had received over 28 million likes on his motivational workout videos.

On Instagram, he had more than 240,000 loyal followers.

The social media star’s final post on TikTok was a video of him giving a heartfelt speech at his brother’s wedding.

Shortly before his passing, O’Donnell posted a video in which he reminisced about old memories and expressed a desire to share that heartfelt moment with his audience. However, the video has since been set to private following his death.

“One of my proudest moments as a brother, being able to send these two off into the next chapter of their lives,” he said of the 7-minute video.

O’Donnell was less active on Instagram, with his final post being in Nov. 2024.

The eerie final post was an Instagram reel showcasing his recent hiking trips.

“I wonder when I leave this earth, when I leave the rat race, when I’m lying in the dirt, if you’d remember my face,” he captioned the clip.

“I am a content creator with most of my media revolving around fitness. However, fitness is far from my passion,” he said in a separate Instagram post shared in Dec. 2022.

Before his untimely death, the fitness guru described himself as a “very solitary person,” and often shared his mental health struggles with fans to “help others along their own path.”

He was also outspoken about the “many different walks of life,” telling his followers that he loved “learning about other cultures and beliefs that make me challenge my own.”

“I also got sober in 2018 and have been an advocate for substance abuse awareness ever since, helping men and women who are struggling find the treatment they need,” he previously wrote on social media.
