Belle, beloved internet matriarch who charmed millions alongside her husband Jock in The Jock and Belle Show, passed away on September 12, 2025. Her granddaughter Christina, who helped run their TikTok and Instagram channels, confirmed that Belle’s death followed the “natural progression of disease with dementia.” The loss has hit the family and their community hard but also sparked an outpouring of love and remembrance.

Belle and Jock first captured attention in mid-2024 when Christina began posting clips of her grandparents’ playful daily life. Their warm arguments, shared laughter, and willingness to try social media trends drew nearly three million followers who found in them something deeply familiar. Belle in particular stood out for her humor, her spirit, and her sharp wit. She became known as “grandma we all needed,” someone whose presence online felt like a comforting part of many people’s scrolls.

In the months before her passing Belle’s health declined. The family noticed her mobility worsening she lost the ability to walk and her mental clarity began slipping. Belle’s diagnosis of dementia came as a difficult confirmation of what they already felt in their hearts. Christina shared these troubles openly with their followers. At some point hospice care was brought in, and by early September Belle was reportedly no longer eating well. Her final days were marked by love, care, community watching on, and the slow retreat from everyday abilities.

Christina shared news of Belle’s death in a heartfelt TikTok video on September 13. She said “Our ‘top of the line’ gram is no longer here,” adding that she feels a part of her has gone too. She also expressed relief that Belle was no longer suffering, that the pain was over. Christina said Belle “really had no quality of life… I’m glad that she’s in a better place where she deserves.” These words reflected mourning shaped by love, longing, and the weight of goodbye.

For many of Belle’s fans Belle was not just an internet personality. She represented a rare kind of visibility a grandmother showing up in viral content, aging and flawed yet full of personality. Her exchanges with Jock were gentle and comic but grounded in real affection. Her attempts to try trends, to smile through decline, made her both human and heroic in her own quiet way. The internet responded swiftly with tributes. Other elderly influencer couples, followers, and casual viewers alike expressed how deeply touching her videos had become. Many said they saw in Belle reminders of their own grandparents, of what home feels like.

Christina also spoke about legacy. The months of video and shared moments now form something more than entertainment. They are memories preserved. She acknowledged that perhaps the channel would never be the same Belle’s presence was central but said that the archive of her last year means something important. People can watch, remember, feel. What she posted now matters even more because it captures the Belle she was and all she meant.

Even as grief surrounds the family there is gratitude. Gratitude for what Belle taught them for the kindness she received, for small moments that will echo: a shared joke a morning greeting a simple smile. Belle’s death reminds that even online lives are rooted in human hearts and that her influence was never just about views or followers but about connection. Her granddaughter’s expressions of thanks to the audience reflect that many felt part of Belle’s story.

Belle’s passing marks an end of a chapter. Jock remains, the community remains, the videos remain. But Belle’s departure is vivid and real. She was a figure who showed aging, illness, love in daily frames she was someone people cared about watching grow older, watching struggle, watching still hold onto humor. For hosts and viewers alike the loss feels personal. It underscores what is often fragile in life. But it also underscores what lasts: laughter, memory, stories. That seems to be what Belle’s real legacy will be.
