Remi Bader candidly addressed her recent breakup with Keyveat Postell through an emotional video shared on TikTok. The fashion influencer, who has built a following of over two million for her honest fashion reviews, confirmed the end of their two-year relationship in a post on 5 March. “Yes, I am single,” Bader began in the clip, which has already amassed 2.3 million views.
This confirmation followed a previous, now-deleted, video in which Bader tearfully spoke about the breakup.

In her most recent TikTok, Bader explained why she removed the initial video, noting that she didn’t want to speak negatively about her ex. Fighting back tears, she admitted she had been re-recording the video multiple times to avoid breaking down on camera. Bader revealed that the breakup happened just days before her 29th birthday.
Reflecting on the relationship, Bader shared that she truly believed Postell was the person she would marry. She described him as her best friend and admitted she had never felt as close to anyone in her life. She confessed she had envisioned spending her future with him and felt deeply heartbroken.
Bader opened up about her dating history, sharing that Postell was her first serious boyfriend and that she hadn’t dated anyone until she was 27. Now 29, she broke down in tears, saying, “I saw such a future with this person.” As she steers her first breakup, Bader admitted to feeling lost and uncertain about how to move on.
While Bader knows she’ll eventually be okay, she acknowledged that healing will take time. She emphasized that she’s focusing on not letting the breakup define her. Despite the pain, Bader expressed no regrets about the relationship, reflecting on how much she learned about herself and her ability to love. Her main priority now is to work on herself and find happiness again.
Though Bader had no advice to offer on dealing with breakups, she remained optimistic about the future and thanked everyone for their overwhelming support. She expressed gratitude for the messages from fans, friends, and people in the industry, noting that their kindness is helping her through this tough time.
Bader also spoke about her journey on social media, reflecting on how she’s persevered through highs and lows. She tearfully acknowledged that despite the struggles, she feels her purpose is to share her story and help others feel connected, whether through laughter or tears. Ending her video on a hopeful note, she affirmed, “We’re going to move forward together, and I love you guys.”
Bader and Postell had started dating in June 2022 after connecting on the dating app Lox Club. Throughout their relationship, Bader kept much of their personal life private, often refraining from tagging him in photos or mentioning his name. During an interview on Amanda Hirsch’s Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, she explained her decision to keep the relationship under wraps, noting that many advised her to protect their privacy to avoid potential issues.
Their relationship went public in November 2022 when Bader shared a black-and-white photo of them kissing on Instagram. However, she later had to defend their relationship against online critics who accused Postell of being paid to date her.
In the comments of her TikTok video, fellow influencers and celebrities offered their support. Riverdale star Lili Reinhart sympathized with Bader, writing: “It’s hard to comprehend someone being there one day and gone the next. Your heart will heal.” The Bachelor star Daisy Kent also sent love, while Too Hot To Handle star Francesca Farago encouraged Bader, assuring her that this experience would only make her stronger.
