Mila Seidl describes grief one month after Lito Sousa’s death

Mila Seidl spoke publicly about grieving her husband, Lito Sousa, one month after his death.

Sousa was a Brazilian influencer known for the YouTube channel Aviões e Músicas.

He died aged 59 after complications from Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, a rare, degenerative condition.

Seidl said even basic tasks such as eating and getting out of bed have been difficult.

She said she feels alone despite being surrounded by people who care about her, as others gradually return to their routines.

Online reactions cast her as both a villain and a hero, but she said she is an ordinary person trying to carry on.

Messages and belongings help her feel connected to Sousa, but they also make his absence painful.

She said people experience grief in different ways and described trying to keep busy with discipline she learned from him.
