Katie Thurston responded to strange death rumors with humor. In a funny Instagram video, she criticized the funeral industry’s high prices.
“It’s Me on the Other Side”
The Bachelorette alum didn’t hold back as she addressed her followers directly.
“Good morning. It’s me on the other side,” Katie began, before adding: “I do just want to shout out Facebook for letting my friends, family, myself know that I have passed on.”
She kept the bit going, telling fans she was “up here chilling with God,” and joked: “Things are good, life is great up here and I’ll see you on the other side.”
The Bachelorette: Calling Out the Funeral Industry
But Katie quickly turned her dark humor into a sharp point about the cost of grief.
“The funeral industry is very much like the wedding industry,” she explained. “There is an increased markup on the things that you need for your maybe not so special occasion.”
From there, she gave a direct shoutout to Titan Casket: “They sell caskets direct to consumer, cutting out that middleman cost.”

Her followers praised the way she handled the morbid situation. One wrote: “This is so funny but also you’re right -very triggering to see articles about your death when you’re very much living.”
Others applauded her sharp wit, with comments like “Icon behaviour” and “Love that you turned negative into a positive with your sense of humor!”
