The 27-year-old influencer, known as Killadamente, tragically passed away after choking on her dinner and going into cardiac arrest in front of her family at a New York restaurant on Saturday.
Her younger sister Khatyan confirmed the heartbreaking news in an Instagram post, sharing a smiling photo of them together.
“I love you sister and I will always love you,” Khatyan wrote. “I give thanks to God for giving me a sister like you with your big heart. Rest in peace my sister.” She later thanked followers for their support, adding, “Thank you also for supporting my sister while she was still alive.”
While autopsy results are still pending, family members believe Acosta died from suspected cardiorespiratory arrest caused by the choking incident.
