A beauty influencer has died aged just 36 after suffering a suspected heart attack on board a yacht in Malta while on holiday.
Tunisian-born Farah El Kadhi was rushed to Mater Dei Hospital in the harbour town of Msida, on the eastern side of the island, after she was found unconscious on June 17.
Hours before, Farah, a trained architect, had been posting photos of herself on board the boat which was 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 cause of death.
Fellow Tunisian influencer Soulayma Hneynia, who lives in Malta and took part in the first series of Love Island Malta, was among those that raised the alarm when she was unable to reach her.
