Dad-of-three Lorenzo – known as Mister Pella Pazzo on TikTok – often shared clips from his family life with his 1.7million followers.
His devastated wife Assunta, who often featured in his videos, confirmed his death in a post on Instagram.
She wrote: “I feel so bad. I can’t believe it.”
It is understood Lorenzo was playing with his children at their flat in Casalnuovo di Napoli near Naples when he started feeling unwell.
He then collapsed and was dashed to hospital.
In an update on TikTok, Assunta told his followers: “Good morning, everyone.
“Lorenzo is not doing very well at the moment. He sends a kiss to everyone.
“Between tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, he will reply to everyone.”
But he sadly died hours after.
The social media star had been hospitalised due to a sudden illness last month.
After being discharged a few days later, he revealed that he had been diagnosed with labyrinthitis – an inner ear infection that affects one’s balance.
Lorenzo’s wife and kids often starred alongside him in his videos.
His clips often featured snippets of his luxury lifestyle, including flash cars and expensive suits.
Actor Massimo Cerbone shared a tribute to the influencer.
He said: “We met on the set of Gomorrah 5. Too soon to die.
“Have a good journey, Misterpellapazzo.”
Fans also took to social media to remember Lorenzo.
One wrote: “Make us laugh even in heaven, Lore.”
Another added: “In this moment of pain, I’m holding on to your family’s pain.
“Fly as high as you can.”
