Russian model and former beauty queen Kseniya Alexandrova has tragically passed away at the age of 30 following severe brain injuries sustained in a roadside accident in Tver Oblast. The incident occurred on July 5, when an elk unexpectedly smashed through the windshield of her car while she was driving home from Rzhev with her husband. She was taken to a Moscow hospital but succumbed to complications from her injuries on August 12, as reported by Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
Alexandrova’s husband recalled the collision, saying it happened in a split second and that she was unconscious immediately after impact. Emergency responders arrived within approximately 15 minutes, and other drivers stopped to help at the scene.
A well-known model and pageant contestant, Alexandrova was the first runner-up in Miss Russia 2017 and went on to represent the country at that year’s Miss Universe pageant. Her modeling agency, Modus Vivendis, confirmed her death on Instagram, praising her for her talent, warmth, and inspiring presence, calling her “a symbol of beauty, kindness and inner strength.”
Alexandrova had married her husband just four months prior to the accident and also worked as a psychologist after earning her degree from Moscow Pedagogical State University. Her untimely death has been met with condolences from family, friends, and fans alike.
