Radio and TV host Lootlove, whose real name is Luthando, posted about her brother Luke on Instagram. She marked five years since he died. Sharing old pictures, she wrote about her ongoing grief, saying this year felt especially hard.

She talked about how the pain hasn't gotten easier. Lootlove mentioned seeing glimpses of her brother in random young men, noticing a similar walk or hearing a familiar tone of voice. These small moments bring back the loss. She wondered if it would ever feel normal not to know what kind of man he would have become, where he would live, or what his life would look like. Family inside jokes or a simple phrase like your mom is calling can suddenly reopen the wound.

Lootlove also expressed sympathy for her mother, recognizing the unique pain of a parent losing a child. Her family tries to move forward with faith, but reminders like a passing butterfly or a specific scent can make the sadness feel new again. She ended her post with a prayer for her brother on what would have been his twenty-fifth birthday, asking for peace and for their hearts to feel lighter.
