Texts between singer D4vd and Celeste Rivas Hernández, the 14-year-old girl he is accused of murdering, reveal that she had been pregnant and had an abortion before her death.

The messages were shown during a hearing before a judge to determine whether the singer, whose legal name is David Anthony Burke, should go on trial for the teenager’s death last year.

“That [if] “First abortion didn’t work?” Celeste texted Burke in June 2024, according to prosecutors. She was 13 at the time and he was 19.

Prosecutors say Burke killed her after she threatened to reveal that he had been abusing a minor and destroy his career. He pleaded not guilty to charges of murder and sexual abuse of the girl.

In an exchange from January 2024, Burke apologized to the teen for “putting her through this,” according to messages shown in a Los Angeles courtroom on Friday.

She replied, “Neither of us are capable of caring for and caring for the baby. It’s for the best, right?”

Burke asked, “Also, my mom always told me to ask this question if I ever found myself in this situation…it’s mine, right?”

Celeste responded “of course it’s yours David,” according to testimony from a detective.

The court heard that in another text to Celeste, sent in June 2024, Burke wrote: “Let this abortion be the last until we have the real one…”

Prosecutors presented iCloud data recovered from the defendant’s iPhone, showing text messages between him and Celeste dating back to August 8, 2022, when she was 11 years old and Burke was 17.

D4vd, who rose to fame on TikTok with the viral hits Romantic Homicide and Here With Me, were on tour when police found Celeste’s body in the front pickup truck of her Tesla in September 2025, the day after she had turned 15.

His world tour was canceled and he largely retreated from public life and social media.

Police announced his arrest in April this year.

Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman filed seven criminal charges against him, including murder, continuous sexual abuse of a child and mutilation of remains.

They said the teen was reported missing by her family and was last seen at Burke’s Hollywood Hills home on April 3, 2025, five months before her remains were discovered in the Tesla.

Prosecutors have said he met Celeste online when she was 11 and allege he began sexually abusing her when she was 13 and he was 18.
