He also slammed social media users who are spreading false information about Alysha's death. "Please allow our family time to grieve during this time," he continued. "It is extremely difficult seeing all of the false narratives trying to defame her legacy and we are ready to take legal action for those continuing to spread false information regarding her passing."

"We know so many people care about her and [we'll] share more information soon but just give us some time and please stop harassing the family," Charles added. "Her legacy will still live on forever."

Charles told entertainment outlet TODAY that Alysha suffered an asthma attack in her sleep, which led to her death on March 2. It happened during their Mexico trip.

Alysha started her YouTube channel in February 2013. According to PEOPLE Magazine, she gained online fame after posting Bad Girls Club parodies and garnered millions of followers on her social media pages.

She also had a production company called ABurneyProductions.
