Though no official cause of death has been revealed, Reyes — who had amassed hundreds of millions of followers during her short career — had been battling cancer in recent months.

Carol first hinted at her health struggles in late December of 2025.

“The most difficult chapter of my life will close,” she captioned her New Year’s Eve post.

“The year in which I cried the most and suffered the most will come to an end—but also the year in which I learned the most.

“A year that broke me into pieces, but that also taught me how to rebuild myself from zero. I realized that life doesn’t wait, that the people you love won’t always be there, and that sometimes pain is the price of loving truly.

“This year showed me how strong I can be, even when I felt like I couldn’t go on anymore. And now, as I say goodbye to this year, I’m not just closing a cycle. I’m closing a version of myself.

“Because even though it hurt, I am ready to never give up again.”

Sadly, Carol’s condition only worsened from there.

In her final months, she continued to post glamorous beach photos from her native Colombia while never shying away from the reality of her illness.

While casual fans might have known that Reyes was sick, those who followed her journey more closely frequently wished her well and offered prayers.

Our thoughts go out to Carol the Warrior’s loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.

She certainly lived up to that nickname in her final months.
