Veruca Salt has shared heartbreaking images from her son Cash’s funeral.
A montage video of the baby boy’s celebration of life was shared on the influencer’s TikTok account on Monday evening.
Images of a crying Veruca, 25, and floating black and white balloons were underlined by Taylor Swift’s song Long Live.
Salt, whose real name is Kimberley Summer Hartley, captioned the video: “I will miss him forever. Everything I do will always be for him.”
Her followers responded with supportive comments.

“Oh Veruca, if I could spare even a few minutes of my life to give you more time with him, I would do so in a heartbeat,” one wrote.
“I haven’t even thought about you and baby Cash for a day,” another added.
It comes after a Sunday video in which Salt revealed that Cash’s body was “in his room a few days back before his funeral.”

“I know you’re worried about me but my baby is back in his room for a few days for his funeral and I’ll be spending time with him instead of being online, thank you,” Veruca wrote.
It comes after a report in the Courier mail that detectives are investigating the baby’s sleeping arrangements before the tragic incident.
The social media star revealed in a heartbreaking Instagram post earlier this month that her six-week-old son Cash had “died in his sleep” the morning before.
In response to a query from Daily Mail Australia, Queensland Police said: ‘Police are preparing a report for the coroner. What aspects of the death form part of that report is a matter for the State Coroner and it would be unusual for any particular aspect to be highlighted.”

Her social media accounts have been flooded with condolence messages after she announced Cash’s death in an Instagram post in early February.
‘It is with a heavy heart that I write this. My baby died in his sleep Monday morning,” she wrote.
‘I don’t know what happened, he’s having an autopsy this week, but it’s unlikely I’ll ever get an answer.
“I’m only saying this because people still comment on my TikToks saying how happy I am with him and ‘just wait for the toddler phase’ and all that, and I really can’t take it anymore. I’m so sorry.’
Queensland Police said initial investigations indicate the death was not suspicious.
