Influencer Isabel Veloso, 19, Dies After Weeks in ICU

Her father has questioned aspects of her hospital care, with allegations under public scrutiny.

Overview

  • Her husband, Lucas Borbas, announced the death on Saturday via Instagram, confirming she died in Curitiba at age 19.
  • Veloso had been hospitalized since November 27 at Hospital Erasto Gaertner, experiencing intubation, extubation, and a return to intensive care after a deterioration.
  • In October 2025 she underwent a bone‑marrow transplant with her father as donor, followed by complications including metabolic imbalance, severe infections, and pneumonia.
  • Reports during her final admission cited excess magnesium in blood tests and episodes of respiratory failure that required ICU support.
  • She leaves her husband and their son, Arthur; her father, Joelson Veloso, has publicly alleged negligence in hematology and ICU care, a claim not supported by medical findings to date.
