Chelsea loanee Raheem Sterling’s ex-girlfriend, Tabby Brown, has tragically passed away following complications from a Brazilian Butt Lift (BBL) surgery.
Brown, a former Playboy model and actress, was 38 years old at the time of her death. She was known for her appearances in high-profile advertising campaigns for brands like Virgin Atlantic and Canon, as well as for her roles in music videos and reality television shows. Her career and vibrant personality left a lasting impression on those who knew her.
In October 2023, Brown traveled to the Dominican Republic for a BBL procedure, a popular yet controversial cosmetic surgery that involves liposuction and fat injections into the buttocks. She kept the purpose of her trip private, telling her family she was visiting South America. After returning to the UK, Brown experienced symptoms resembling a viral infection but declined to seek medical care. Tragically, she collapsed at her home in South London and was found unresponsive by her mother.
An inquest later confirmed that Brown’s death was caused by a fat embolism, a rare but potentially fatal complication associated with BBL procedures. This tragic event has once again raised concerns about the risks involved with BBL surgeries, which have become more popular in recent years despite their high mortality rate.
Friends and family have paid tribute to Brown, remembering her as someone with a radiant smile and an infectious personality.
