Avery Woods is paying tribute to her friend Emilie Kiser’s late son, Trigg.
As previously reported by PEOPLE, the 3-year-old died in the hospital on May 18, days after he was reportedly found unconscious in a backyard pool in Arizona on May 12.
In the Monday, June 2 upload, Woods does a GRWM (Get Ready With Me) for fans, explaining in the caption, “Been awhile since I put makeup on so thought I’d get ready for our anniversary 🤍 missed you.”
For the video, Woods wore her hair slicked back as she applied her makeup in a white spaghetti-strap tank top. She stayed silent throughout the video as viewers saw her go through every step of her makeup process.
While the video was a little over a minute long, it was her jewelry that caught fans’ attention. Woods wore three-layered necklaces, one of which held a circular pendant with the name “Trigg.”
