D4vd & Celeste Rivas Timeline of Relationship & Alleged Murder

Published | Updated

D4vd will head to court this month for his preliminary hearing in Celeste Rivas' murder case.

The singer -- whose legal name is David Anthony Burke -- has been charged with killing the teenager. But you may be wondering when everything went down ... and how they even met in the first place.

TMZ's got everything you need to know about D4vd and Celeste. Here's how the prosecutors say the timeline breaks down:

January 2022: D4vd and Celeste Meet

According to the brief filed by prosecutors on April 29 ... D4vd and Celeste first met when she was 11 years old.

Celeste's former teacher -- who tells TMZ he taught her at Lakeland Village School in Lake Elsinore, California -- claims the two met on social media.

November 2023: Their Relationship Turns Sexual

The brief claims D4vd and Celeste began a sexual relationship the following November -- when he was 18 and she was only 13 years old.

The court doc doesn't elaborate on the accusation or say how prosecutors arrived at this allegation.

January 2024: D4vd and Celeste on Livestream Together

You can see Celeste and D4vd on a January 2024 livestream together ... answering fans' questions. At one point, you can hear Celeste encourage D4vd to respond to a specific comment.

February 2024: Celeste Reported Missing

According to prosecutors ... Celeste's family reported her missing to the Riverside County Sheriff's Department.

The D.A. says the RCSD called D4vd on February 17 because they found his number in Celeste's phone records.

On the phone, D4vd allegedly told authorities he hadn't talked to Celeste since February 13 or 14 ... and claimed he was unaware she was missing ... or that she was a minor.

That night, the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department went to D4vd's West Hollywood rental house, where he told them he'd only met Celeste in person once the previous November ... according to the brief.

The doc alleges that during this visit, D4vd showed deputies a yearbook photo of Celeste that he had on his phone.

February 19, 2024: Celeste Returns Home

According to the brief ... Celeste returned home to Lake Elsinore just two days after L.A. County deputies visited D4vd's home.

It notes that D4vd told officers during the welfare check at his home that he didn't know where Celeste was during the period in which she was missing.

February 2024: D4vd Keeps Pursuing Celeste

According to the filing ... D4vd "continued to pursue" Celeste ... even though both RCSD and LASD had allegedly informed him that she was a minor.

The brief says Celeste's parents took her phone away after she returned home. After this, D4vd allegedly drove to Lake Elsinore to pay a junior high student $1000 to give Celeste a phone he had bought for her.

A photo obtained by TMZ in September 2025 shows D4vd near the victim's home in Lake Elsinore, interacting with a man holding a brown bag ... but it's unclear if the pic is from his alleged visit in February of that year.

And as we previously reported, a TikTok commenter accused D4vd of "messing with a 13-year-old" ... and Celeste was 13 at the time of the post.

April 2024: Celeste Reported Missing Again

According to prosecutors, Celeste's family reported her missing again ... just months after the last time she'd been missing.

D4vd seemed to describe a couple of these alleged trips in an April 2025 interview with online magazine Songwriter Universe ... when he mentioned a trip he took to London with three "friends." He added that he went to Houston for two weeks after that.

Throughout 2024: Texts Confirm Sexual Relationship

According to the brief ... texts allegedly show D4vd and Celeste had a "lengthy argument." In the alleged messages, Celeste was seemingly jealous that D4vd had relationships with other women ... the filing says.

The brief continues, claiming Celeste threatened to disclose "damaging information" about her relationship with D4vd with the alleged goal of ruining his life and career.

April 23, 2025: Likely Day Celeste Died

Prosecutors believe this is the "likely date" Celeste died ... according to the brief. It notes that all her cell phone activity stopped this night.

At Approximately 8:40 PM

The filing says D4vd sent an Uber to bring Celeste from Lake Elsinore to his place in the Hollywood Hills, in Los Angeles.

At Approximately 10:10 PM

Celeste was allegedly dropped off at D4vd's Hollywood Hills home. The brief claims that "very soon after her arrival at his home" the singer stabbed Celeste to death multiple times and stood by while she bled out.

The filing says D4vd did not attempt to save her life ... he didn't call 911 or bring Celeste to the emergency room.

At Approximately 10:30 PM

D4vd sent texts to Celeste asking where she was ... according to the brief. Prosecutors argue this was his "premeditated plan to cover up the murder, as she was already dead by this time."

At Approximately 11:30 PM

April 24, 2025: D4vd Returns From Santa Barbara
