A beauty influencer has suffered an untimely death, after she passed away in a yacht in Malta of a suspected heart attack while on holiday.
Tunisian-born Farah El Kadhi, 36, was rushed to Mater Dei Hospital in the harbour town of Msida, on the east of the island, after she was found lifeless on a yacht on June 17.
Hours before, Farah, a trained architect, had been posting photos of her on board the boat docked in a marina.
Local media reports say she had no signs of injuries and had arrived in the country for a one-week holiday.
An autopsy will be carried out and a magisterial inquiry has been opened to confirm the exact cause of death.
Fellow Tunisian influencer Soulayma Hneynia, who lives in Malta and participated in the first season of Love Island Malta, was one of those that raised the alarm when she was unable to reach her.
