On what would have been his 35th birthday, Kylie Jenner paid a heartfelt homage to her late hairstylist, Jesus Guerrero.

In a heartfelt note, the successful cosmetics entrepreneur, aged 28, expressed deep emotions towards her beloved hairstylist and close friend, six months following his sad demise.

On Saturday, the 23rd of August, she posted a picture on her Instagram Story featuring a tiny birthday cake with flickering candles.

She mentioned Ariel Tejada, the shared friend who is a celebrity makeup artist, and penned a message to their departed friend: ‘There isn’t a day that passes without us remembering you.’

‘Happy heavenly birthday,’ she continued. ‘You’re forever loved and missed.’

Her post emerged after it was confirmed that he had died from pneumonia and a fungal infection, possibly due to complications of AIDS, according to the medical examiner in Los Angeles County.)

He passed away at a hospital in Los Angeles on February 22, not long after completing work alongside Jennifer Lopez, who was among his high-profile clientele, in Dubai.

The next day, his family shared the news of his passing on their social media accounts. Before embarking on a trip abroad, he had spent some time with Jenner in Los Angeles.

In the days following her friend’s passing, Jenner wrote a heartfelt Instagram post, addressing him as ‘a beacon of light in my life.’

In her heartfelt tribute, she expressed that Jesus was not just a friend to her, but a shining beacon in her life, providing joy, solace, affection, and constant encouragement.

She penned, “I wouldn’t have managed these past nearly ten years without him by my side. He had this unique ability to make difficult days seem less burdensome.

She expressed gratitude, saying, “Thanks, Jesus, for standing by me, for giving me a boost, for being such a great companion.

She penned, ‘The agony of being without you is overwhelming, and I struggle to find a way to carry on. Yet, I recognize that deep sorrow can stem from profound affection. Indeed, my affection for you was immense.’

She went on saying: “You were exceptionally gifted, your talents outshone most. Truly, you were an artist in every sense. Your influence touched countless lives, and it continues to do so.

As a devoted admirer, your words, your infectious laughter, your gracious kindness, and the radiant essence of your spirit have etched themselves deep within my heart for eternity. Each moment we shared – every hearty laugh, warm embrace – I hold them dear. If only I could envelop you in another hug, I would in a heartbeat.

In a way that mirrors how you often did, you found me nestled in your bed, chatting for extended periods. I yearn profoundly for another heartfelt conversation. The void of your absence will be immense, more than words can express. 222, my guardian angel.

In an interview with Us Weekly in April, his sister Gris Guerrero shared that he had been diagnosed with gastritis several months ago. However, it wasn’t severe enough to be a significant concern, so it’s unclear if it played a role in his condition prior to the autopsy results being revealed.

Stomach inflammation, known as gastritis, may stem from various causes such as intense emotional stress, certain drugs, excessive drinking, poor nutrition, tobacco use, underlying diseases, surgical complications following severe burns or major surgeries, and a host of other possible factors.

Symptoms might involve feelings of nausea and throwing up, sensations of pain or a burning in the abdomen, bleeding from the abdomen or a decrease in appetite, as suggested by Johns Hopkins.

As a devoted sister, I can share my observations that, from the records I’ve reviewed, it appears my beloved brother shed approximately 20 pounds in the time leading up to his passing.

She mentioned that his illness might have been related to his digestive system, as they had noticed during his last days that he struggled to eat without experiencing pain.

In Houston, Texas, Guerrero was laid to rest on a Sunday, around a month following his passing. Both Jenner and Lopez were present, as per TMZ’s report.

As a die-hard admirer, I’m thrilled to share that on February 25, Kylie Jenner, the remarkable 27-year-old entrepreneur behind Kylie Cosmetics, publicly pledged to shoulder my potential funeral expenses. But it doesn’t stop there; she’s also ready to extend all her assistance and support to me during this time. Truly a testament to her kindness and compassion!

Gris shared with Us Weekly that she had disclosed everything necessary. To her, Jesus was more than just an acquaintance, and their bond was mutual – familial.

She’s always accessible, ready to help with whatever we might need or ask about. Her intention is clear: she wishes to ensure that his memory is respected and wants to contribute significantly for a fitting goodbye that he truly deserves.
