      Hi Rosie,

      Great question! I’m not entirely sure, but I think there are theories that say if a black hole doesn’t have enough ‘stuff’ to ‘absorb’, they may just fade away, but this would be very hard to detect in real life I think, as a black hole without hot material falling into it would not give enough much radiation..
