The case of Celeste Rivas, the 14-year-old whose body was discovered in the trunk of singer D4vd’s Tesla, continues to raise troubling questions.

 While law enforcement has yet to make an arrest, new revelations from D4vd’s friends suggest that many in his circle believed Rivas was 19 years old. They say she carried multiple fake IDs, attended age-restricted parties, and even presented herself as a student at USC.

Sources close to the Los Angeles music scene told TMZ that Celeste was frequently seen alongside D4vd at parties and hangouts. “It appeared to us they were a couple,” one acquaintance shared, adding that her presence in clubs reinforced the belief that she was an adult.

Who Was Celeste Rivas?

Celeste Rivas, whose full name was Celeste Rivas Hernandez, often ran away from what police described as a “troubled home.” According to her mother, she had been dating someone named David before her disappearance. She was reported missing in 2024, and her decomposed body was not found until September 8, 2025, inside D4vd’s abandoned Tesla.
