Jessica Falkholt, an Australian actress, died from injuries sustained in a serious vehicle accident a few weeks ago. She was 29 years old.
According to PEOPLE, Falkholt was involved in a car crash on December 26. She had been in a coma since the incident and was reportedly taken off life support on January 10. After a week in critical condition, she passed away Wednesday.
Tragically, the car crash also involved Falkholt’s family, claiming the lives of her father Lars, 69, mother Vivian, 61, and sister Annabelle, 21. The oncoming driver that struck their family’s vehicle, Craig Anthony Whitall, 51, was also killed, per News.Com.Au. Falkholt was taken off life support on the day of her family’s funeral.
The teenage actress was most remembered for appearing in 16 episodes of the classic TV drama Home and Away as Hope Morrison. Other Australian stars such as Heath Ledger, Isla Fisher, and Chris Hemsworth have benefited from the success of the Australian serial. Falkholt had also recently finished production for a new Australian picture, Harmony, which will be released in theaters later this year.
David Newman, the casting director who recruited her, expressed his sorrow on Facebook.
“So hard to concentrate today, this screenshot is from just eight weeks ago, where I had the pleasure of another audition with the gorgeous Jessica Falkholt,” he wrote.
