YouTube creator Billy LeBlanc shared devastating news that his partner died after being infected with a rare infection from oysters.

On July 14, 44-year-old LeBlanc posted on Instagram that he «almost died», - but his girlfriend Natalie Clark, 37, «passed away» after they were infected with a rare bacterial infection vibrio vulnificus from raw oysters.

«I'm sure none of you know, but recently I almost died. I was in the hospital for 12 days. Unfortunately, Natalie did not survive and passed away», - he wrote in the caption of his post. «I will always remember how we got lost together everywhere. I will always love her and miss her… Be careful and hold your loved ones close, you never know when it will be the last time you see them».

In addition to Billy’s post about him and Natalie being infected with vibrio vulnificus — a potentially deadly bacterial infection that can cause fever, vomiting, and diarrhea, among other symptoms, according to the Cleveland Clinic — his mother, Ivette Bertello LeBlanc, shared on Facebook on July 6 that the «last two weeks have been difficult» for their family due to the tragedy.

«Natalie lost her life, and Billy was very close to death and was in the ICU for 8 days», - she said in the post. «Please continue to pray for Natalie’s son Julian, for her family, and for Billy, for both his health and his heart».

The YouTuber — whose channel has over 200 thousand subscribers — was part of the popular YouTube family that posted through the Bratayleys account with his ex-wife Katie LeBlanc and their children Annie, Hayley, and their late son Caleb, who passed away in 2015.

The day before Billy announced Clark’s death, he posted a birthday greeting to his son Caleb, who died at the age of 13 from «natural causes», - as previously reported by LeBlanc and his family on Instagram.

«It seems like just yesterday you would have been with us in this ihop. I miss you, my little boy. Happy birthday».

After divorcing in 2019, Billy started his own YouTube channel called «Just Billy LeBlanc», - where in 2020 he introduced Natalie — the mother of 17-year-old son Julian — as his new girlfriend.

Earlier this year, Natalie posted a sweet diary tribute to Billy, in which she also noted their life together.

«Seeing you, birthday boy!» she captioned her post on January 19. «These are special moments. The ones that will make us a strong couple even in difficult times. Another year, not for us, but for you»
