An inquest is due to be opened by the Pembrokeshire coroner, during which the cause of death will be given. Although one has not yet been revealed, there is speculation that a TikTok challenge could have played a role.

A spokesperson from the Dyfed-Powys Police (DPP), the territorial police force responsible for Pembrokeshire, told Bored Panda via email that Honey’s death “is not being treated as suspicious.”

“Our thoughts are with her family at this time, and support has been offered from specialist officers,” the DPP stated.

Officers are offering support to pupils at Ysgol Penrhyn Dewi following the 12-year-old’s death. “Children affected by this incident can find help and support from Childline by calling 0800 1111.’
