Influencer inherits $33.6M debt after husband's tragic death by suicide

Candice faces financial crisis as Brandon Miller's debts total $33.6 million with unresolved legal matters.

randon Miller's financial struggles have left his wife, Candice, with a daunting task: managing the couple's $33.6 million debt and navigating ongoing legal issues. The influencer behind Mama & Tata is facing an uphill battle after her husband's shocking suicide in July. With a reported $8,000 in their joint bank account at the time of his death, Candice must now deal with debts to major banks like UBS and BMO, as well as family friends and American Express.

    A recent New York Times report shed light on Brandon Miller's financial turmoil before his tragic passing. A lender who provided him with a $208,000 loan in June described an emotional encounter where Miller appeared "close to tears" discussing his financial difficulties. Despite having repaid most of a previous $1 million loan, the lender agreed to the second loan based on Miller's past repayment history.

    Candice has been trying to rebuild her life with their daughters in a $10 million Miami beachfront home while sorting through the debt and dealing with lawyers, lenders, and courts. The couple's Hamptons estate, burdened with five mortgages totaling nearly $12 million, was put on the market for $15.5 million in August 2023. Although Candice received $15 million from life insurance policies Brandon had taken out before his death, she still faces multiple lawsuits, including one claiming nearly $5 million in unpaid loans and another seeking almost $200,000 for unpaid rent.

    Candice has revealed to friends that she was not involved in her husband's business dealings or kept track of their finances. She has already agreed to pay $4 million to settle one of the outstanding debts.
