Loana, who has just died at age 48, faced many health problems during her life. But what do we know about his condition before his disappearance?
Loana has just died at the age of 48, announced Paris-Matchand if we do not yet know the exact circumstances of his death, we know that the health of the former star of the small screen was particularly fragile. According to the show Everything Beautiful Everything 9it was Loana’s neighbors who alerted the emergency services after being worried by a strange smell coming from her apartment. According to Nice-Morningthe firefighters came through the window and discovered the body of the lifeless forty-year-old. His death dates back several days. An investigation was opened to try to shed light on the circumstances of his death.
Loana, her state of health before dying: trauma, memory loss, hospitalizations…
Loana’s health seemed to have deteriorated in recent years. In 2024, she confided on the set of Don’t Touch My Post that she had been the victim of rape in 2023 and that since this trauma, she had difficulty speaking as well as memory loss. In March 2023, she was hospitalized at Nice hospital after feeling unwell in the street.
In 2022, she also indicated that she had been urgently admitted to a hospital in her region. A ring had been stuck on her finger for three weeks without her being able to remove it. On Instagram, Loana showed a video of her (very) swollen finger and the ring that remained stuck, just before her operation. Then, she posted a photo of her bandaged hand after the surgical procedure. “I was very scared“, she declared, while the blogger Aqababe indicated at the time that her finger was so “necrosis” that she had almost lost him.
What Loana said about her mental health: “I’m really sick…”
The last few years have unfortunately been very dark for the forty-year-old. The former model had to face serious financial problems (she even confided in several interviews that her money was regularly “breath”), and mental health.
She did not hesitate to speak out on this subject on the set of TPMP in 2022. Loana then confided to Cyril Hanouna and his columnists that she was mentally unstable, and had to take daily treatment to try to stabilize her numerous anxieties and crises.
The star also revealed the health problems she suffered from in the Morning without filter. “I am bipolar with schizophrenic tendencies. I realize now, it’s very helpful, so actually I’m actually sick and I’m considered disabled. And since I’m going to have these four hundred euros because I’m disabled, I can no longer have a permanent job“, she confided.
Loana, faced with her addictions: “She became an alcoholic”
Loana unfortunately experienced a meteoric rise and an equally rapid descent into hell, shortly after her Loft Story victory. In 2008, her mental health was weakened by a former cocaine dealer, who had a terrible influence on her. “From 10 a.m., I took two strokes. It had become my main food“, she confided to the journalist Paul Sanfourche in his book Sexism Storyin 2021.
This was followed by several suicide attempts and stays in psychiatric hospitals. And when she finally got back on track, the hell started again when she faced heavy debts and crossed paths with another toxic partner. This time, it was in drink that she drowned her sorrows. “The problem is she’s become an alcoholic and capable of downing a bottle of whiskey a day“, recounted Paul Sanfourche. A descent into hell which probably led to his death…
