A former Miss Teen Universe has died after suffering cardiac arrest on a ski trip the day before her 20th birthday.
Model Lotte van der Zee, from Holland, passed away after being placed in an artificially induced coma after falling ill while on vacation in Westendorf, Austria, with her family. The beauty queen, who won the prestigious pageant in 2017, died Wednesday at a hospital in Munich, Germany, two weeks after the cardiac arrest.
Her distraught parents broke the news on Instagram.
They said: “Our pearl, our everything passed away on Wednesday evening March 6th at 22:47. It is incredibly surreal that our dearly beloved Lotte is not around us anymore. “Our hearts are truly broken. We would like to thank you all again for all the support and heartwarming messages.”
The parents said their daughter had been out with friends the night before her heart attack but that she had returned “cheerfully and without health complaints.”
But she did not appear for breakfast and when her parents went to check on her, they found her ill in bed. They wrote on their daughter’s Instagram that her sickness “swiftly escalated in sudden cardiac arrest” later that day. She was resuscitated by her mother and rushed to a nearby hospital, where she was placed in a coma. The young model was then transferred to a special hospital in Munich, where she suffered organ failure, according to reports.
Her family has said tests are still being carried out to determine what caused her heart attack.
