Who is MarkyNextDoor? Twitch streamer denies links to D4vd in Celeste Rivas case
The decomposing body of 15-year-old Celeste Rivas was found in the trunk of a car belonging to singer D4vd in Los Angeles.
MarkyNextDoor, a Twitch streamer, had to issue a statement to shut down speculations linking him to singer D4vd in the Celeste Rivas case. The decomposing body of the 15-year-old Rivas was found in the trunk of a car belonging to the 20-year-old singer, in Los Angeles.
Speculation began to do the rounds online that MarkyNextDoor was somehow involved with Celeste. This seemed to spring from a Discord chat screenshot shared widely on X. Notably, these claims all came from unverified accounts.
“Fans are speculating that D4vd may be innocent,” another X user stated, highlighting D4vd's purported comment “Facts best bodyguard he'd kill for me.”
MarkyNextDoor or Mark Morales has shut down the rumors with an X post, saying “Idk why someone trolling a comm has even gotten me to this point but…The Discord message/screenshot with me added in is fake and isn’t even me, nor is the message even real. My thoughts and prayers are with the victim and her families. May God bless and keep them.”
