MasterChef alum and popular TikTok influencer Yanin Campos has died following a devastating car accident in Mexico.
The 38-year-old, who competed on the hit cooking show in 2018, was driving her SUV in her hometown of Chihuahua on Saturday when she reportedly lost control of the vehicle and slammed into a parked car, according to local outlets.
Images circulating online show the wreckage of the crash, with Campos’ SUV left mangled from the impact.
She was rushed to a nearby hospital but tragically succumbed to her injuries two days later.
Her brother Raúl Campo confirmed the heartbreaking news in a statement on social media.
‘To our family and friends, we inform you and mourn the passing of my sister, Yanin Campos,’ he wrote.

‘The wake is at the Hernández Funeral Home for those who would like to say goodbye and join us.’
Although she placed sixth in the 2018 season of MasterChef México, Campos was later invited back to compete on MasterChef: La Revancha in 2019.
Authorities say the deadly accident occurred around 6:30 a.m. on Saturday along the Francisco R. Almada highway.
Campos was behind the wheel of a black GMC Terrain when she reportedly veered off course and collided with a stationary vehicle.
Emergency responders transported her to Hospital del Parque, where she remained in critical condition until she passed away in the ICU on Monday night.
Local police have opened an investigation to determine what led to the crash.
Yanin had built a sizable TikTok following, with nearly 100,000 fans tuning into her content.
Her last Instagram post, shared in April 2023, featured her posing by a classic red telephone box and Big Ben during a trip to London.
