She was just 46.

Tragedy struck during what should have been the happiest time for iconic model Georgina Cooper and her husband Nigel.

Friends Jade Parfitt and Erin O’Connor confirmed the passing of Georgina Cooper, a mother of one, on social media on Thursday, November 8. According to reports from the Daily Mail, Cooper died from complications linked to long COVID.

Georgina Cooper was on the Greek island of Kos with her new husband, just months after their wedding, when their honeymoon turned into a nightmare. She became seriously ill and was rushed to the island’s hospital.

Due to the severity of her condition, she was flown by helicopter to Crete for more advanced care. Tragically, after five days in intensive care, Georgina passed away, leaving her loved ones heartbroken.

”Georgina had been unwell during Covid and had developed some health problems and had been in and out of hospital. But she had plans for the future. She had just married and was looking forward to her life. Everybody is devastated. She was a genuine superstar,” her former agent, Dean Goodman, told Daily Mail.

Despite receiving medical care after falling ill, Georgina Cooper tragically passed away at the age of 46. While the exact cause of her death has not been officially confirmed, reports suggest that a brain hemorrhage, likely linked to long COVID complications, may have contributed to her untimely passing.

“I tried to continue modeling, but it broke my heart when I had to leave him for work. I focused on modeling assignments in London, but my life was at a crossroads, and I decided that Sonny came first,” she told The Cultural Omnivore.

She and her partner had dreams of opening a bar in Kos, where they had family, but those plans were tragically cut short. Georgina’s legacy lives on through her loving family and the warmth she brought to everyone around her.

She is survived by her husband and son.
