A host of stars paid tribute to Daniel with emotional social media posts, including model Kaia Gerber.
She wrote: “I remember that time we sat on the couch and spent the whole day coming up with our own secret language that we continued to speak every time we saw each other. I wish we could go back there.”
“I wish we were still talking in sentences that probably annoyed everyone else but made us crack up every time. I wish I was still sitting on my bathroom floor because that was the only place I had wifi and I never wanted to miss a call from you.”
“Thank you for being the reason for so much laughter and happiness in the world. It won’t be the same without you here. I love you Daniel.”
Delilah Belle Hamlin, who is the daughter of Harry Hamlin and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Rinna, wrote: “I’m completely heartbroken. I haven’t stopped crying since I’ve found out.”
“Daniel Mickelson I loved you more than you know. You were my best friend. At one point we wouldn’t go a day without FaceTiming at least 10 times while I was in New York and you in college.”
“At one point in my life I was so in love with you but never got the chance to tell you that because the timing was never right. Thank you for being my Dan when I needed you most. Thank you for always putting a smile on my face. Thank you for always showing me love and nothing less.”
“I will love you forever. A part of me won’t ever be the same. I miss you Dan. I love you. I’m proud of you. Rest easy ❤️”
