Celeb Model Dies After 12th Floor Balcony Fall With Husbands Suicide Claim Not Stacking Up

This beautiful model has tragically died after falling from her 12th-floor balcony, with her family saying her husband’s claim she committed suicide does not stack up.

Nayara Vit, 33, died after falling from the 12th floor of her apartment block in the Chilean capital Santiago on 7th July.

The model, who hailed from the Brazilian city of Cuiaba and lived in the Chilean capital, was known for appearing on the popular talk show ‘Toc Show’ on channel TV+.

According to journalist Sergio Puga, who is the victim’s cousin, Nayara’s husband, Rodrigo Del Valle Mijac, who is the director of a tech company, said he was sitting in the living room when the model ran out of their bedroom and threw herself off the balcony.

Puga said of the police: “They worked with the suicide hypothesis and that was it. That’s very strange. Rodrigo got in touch with Nayara’s family an hour later on his lawyer’s advice. Who loses a loved one and goes to look for a lawyer to call the deceased’s father?”

Puga is calling for all the facts to be investigated as he says Rodrigo’s version of events does not stack up. Nayara’s mother, Eliane Vit, also took to social media to say she did not believe her daughter committed suicide.

The victim’s family has been unable to travel to the scene of the crime due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic ruling out movement between the two countries. The family is currently in touch with the local embassy.

Nayara was born in Cuiaba to a Lebanese father and a Spanish mother and she lived there for 15 years before moving to the Brazilian city of Sao Paulo.

She had been living in Santiago for the past 16 years and leaves behind a four-year-old daughter, who said she heard her mother screaming moments before the fall, which took place just days after her 33rd birthday.
