Jewelry designer and reality TV star dies following brain surgery stemming from a Christmas Eve incident.
Lynn Ban, a prominent jewelry designer and beloved star of the Netflix reality show Bling Empire, has tragically passed away at the age of 51, just a month after undergoing life-saving brain surgery due to a ski accident on Christmas Eve. The heartbreaking news was announced by her son, Sebastian, who shared a touching tribute on Instagram, referring to his mother as his "best friend and the best mother."
The fateful accident occurred while Ban was skiing in Aspen, Colorado. On New Year's Eve, she utilized social media to recount her experience, explaining that she had fallen dramatically while skiing yet felt reassured because she was wearing a helmet. Though she managed to ski to safety afterward, she decided to seek hospital care after experiencing mild headaches, which led to the shocking discovery of a brain bleed. This revelation resulted in an emergency craniotomy, a major surgery she had hoped would lead to recovery.
Known for her impressive career, Ban's jewelry designs have graced the bodies of music icons such as Madonna, Beyoncé, and Lady Gaga, making her a noteworthy figure in the fashion industry. She was featured in Bling Empire New York, where her escapades as part of a glamorous group of Asian American socialites were showcased.
In his tribute, Sebastian Ban expressed a desire for the world to recognize his mother's vibrant character, noting her persistent smile even during challenging times. "She is a fighter until the end and is the strongest woman I know," he shared, reflecting the indomitable spirit that Lynn Ban demonstrated throughout her life and career.
