This was also the first photo De La Garza had shared of her and Mitchell together. (Mitchell, who is also an actor, appears to be largely inactive on social media.)

Thousands of people flocked to the comments section to share their sympathies, including De La Garza’s older sister Demi Lovato, who wrote, “I love you so much Xiomara.
