A weight loss influencer and mum-of-four has died from a suspected cardiac arrest.

Mila De Jesus passed away on Friday (12 January) at the age of 35, just four months after she married her husband George Kowszik.

A post on De Jesus' Instagram page written by her daughter confirmed the sad news.

It read (translated): "I, Anna Clara, am posting this condolence note. We are very sad to hear of the passing of our beautiful mother. We appreciate all the prayers and condolences. Continue to pray for us. Thank you."

The influencer became famous online after her dramatic transformation six years ago, which saw her undergo weight loss surgery.

More recently, Mila, who was born in Brazil but lived in Boston, US, had been suffering with psoriasis since July last year.

“It’s been three months dealing with this situation, 80 percent of my body is affected," she said at the time.

“Juggling doctors, medications, ointments, and taking a deep breath.”

Mila had reflected on her weight loss journey recently.

In November, she celebrated six years since her surgery with two snaps side by side showing her remarkable transformation.

She wrote: “Thirteen years between one photo and another.

“Six years since a decision that changed my life in various aspects.

“On one side, the 22-year-old Mila, and on the other, the 35-year-old Mila.

“Look at how much we’ve changed, how we’ve grown, and what we’ve learned.

“Proud, girl, proud.”

Just two weeks ago, the influencer posted on Instagram to ring in the new year.

"Ready to welcome the best year of our lives thus far... 2024 I waited eagerly for you!!" she wrote (translated).

Since the news was announced, tributes have been pouring in for the mum-of-four.

One wrote on social media (translated): "I can only imagine the size of your pain as your mother was the best mother she could be... I won't stop praying for you children, I'm sure God will send a comforting angel."

While another added (translated): "You are in my prayers, Mila will always be remembered for the legacy she left us! I will always remember her smiling."

And a third said: "I can't believe it. My condolences to you and your brothers, the whole family. Can't believe we won't see her around here anymore. God give strength to the whole family, she will be missed dearly."
