Garcia finally gave his social media followers an update on his personal life. 'KingRy' posted a 53-second video on X, claiming to have lost access to his Instagram, cell phone, and credit cards due to an unknown entity taking "advantage" of his situation. Garcia also stated that he is physically "okay" and asked everyone to not believe in "lies" about his mental and physical health.
He said:
"I'm not in possession of my phone. I can't get access to my Instagram. My cards are locked and I'm just being taken advantage of. I personally just wanted to send out a video to the people that love me — my fans and family that's concerned — that I'm okay. I'm not dead, I believe in Jesus, all those are lies."
