Tributes are pouring in for 11-year-old Tommie-Lee Gracie Billington, who tragically died after participating in the dangerous chroming trend, a social media craze. His family, devastated by the loss, is urging parents to educate their children about the risks of social media. Tommie-Lee’s grandmother, Tina Burns, said he went into cardiac arrest and died instantly. The family wants to raise awareness and protect other children, calling for social media restrictions for those under 16.

Tommie-Lee was found unresponsive at a friend’s house on March 2. Police are investigating his death, which may be linked to inhaling volatile substances. A GoFundMe for his funeral raised over £4,800, with extra funds set to go toward a memorial. His family hopes to save other children by sharing their painful experience.
