It comes after police in Brazil launched an investigation over the mysterious death of another influencer and her teenage daughter. They were discovered after reports from worried neighbours.
Lidiane Aline Lorenco, 33, and 15-year-old Miana Sophya Santos were tragically found dead in their 11th floor flat after residents became concerned for their welfare.
Having not seen or heard from the mother or daughter for some time, they reported an unpleasant odour coming from the apartment.
The Fire Department arrived at the block of apartments in Rio de Janeiro and, after receiving no answer, broke down the door. Inside they found Lidiane in a bedroom and Miana in the living room, according to local reports. Both had been dead for some time, police believe.
