Former “Bachelor” contestant Josh Seiter insists that he was the victim of a death hoax, but not everyone believes him.
The reality TV star took to Instagram to announce that she is “alive and well” after someone posted a message on her social media page announcing that she had taken her own life. Although Josh insists that he was hacked, his ex claims that he did it himself as a publicity stunt.
As a result, Josh claims that he has faced “death threats” and “harassment” and has decided to check himself into a mental health facility as a result of the incident.

On September 25, Josh took to Instagram to share a short message. “Over the last month, I have received hundreds of hateful messages and endless harassment related to my account being hacked.”
“I wish I was stronger but I can’t take it anymore and I’m logging off social media for good and I’m checking myself into a health facility now to try and get some control over my mental health,” she continued.
“I lost my phone within the next hour,” he added. “I love you all. To the person who sent me death threats, you win.”

Monica Beverly Hillz’s Ex Josh Believes He Faked His Own Death

“RuPaul’s Drag Race” star Monica Beverly Hillz came out shortly after the death hoax saying that she believes that Josh lied about his account being hacked. Instead, he told Entertainment Weekly that he believes he posted the fake obituary himself to get back into the limelight.
Although the two first met in 2013, he revealed that he didn’t start talking to her again until August 2023, the same month that the death hoax aired. Monica stated that it was “hard” to continue their relationship because she “looked him up on Google and saw “all the negative press about him.” However, she went on to say, “For me, the internet is the internet, than social media, I know better, don’t believe everything you read.”
However, after the two went Instagram official with their relationship, Monica revealed that she started getting warnings from fans that she was an “influencer chaser”. He said, “When I hear a comment, I will ask him. He would tell me that he would plant the story himself.”

On Tuesday, August 22, she said she woke up to a text message from him saying, “Hey hun, I’m sorry, but I’m not good. My grandfather died this morning in his sleep. Heading to the airport right now, my life is a mess, and I can’t give you the time and dedication you deserve. Let’s stay friends. Thanks for being great.”
She said she read the Instagram statement announcing his death “just like everyone else” and expressed disappointment that he had not contacted her after she was hacked. “You’re dating me, if s— you get hacked, you should call me, the first one… He knows me enough that I know I’m going to pick up the phone, because I’m friends with all my exes,” she explained.
“He had my number, to call me and say, ‘Hey, I need your help, you can put out a statement saying my stuff was hacked.’ He doesn’t do s—, sit back, and attack everyone who’s freaking out and going through something. It hurts in the head,” he added.

He also could not explain why the fake death hoax remained active on his account for almost 24 hours. He told the outlet: “He watched all of this and knew it was out of control… I’m here crying, I’m not sleeping, crying every two minutes thinking about this happening, and the whole time, this guy is still alive to get through all of this—. “
Josh later slammed her statement, saying, “Those are all ridiculous accusations made by someone out of touch with their time.”
“As a mental health advocate, the issue of suicide is very sensitive for me. To suggest that I would organize a death post around that issue is sickening,” he continued. “I have dedicated the last 8 years of my life to blogging and raising awareness about mental health, and I will continue to do so. It doesn’t matter what my critics say.”
