An Update on Daul Kim's Death


As i mentioned a few days ago, the fashion world is shocked at the death of model Daul Kim who was found dead in her Parisian apartment. It is now understood the Daul's death was a suicide and she suffered from depression. Thursday, she had a conversation via im with a friend about her depression and her abusive relationship with her boyfriend just hours before her death. According to The Daily Beast and COCOperez.com:

She was depressed, she wrote, according to a transcript of the chat seen by The Daily Beast. She and her boyfriend had just had another brutal physical fight. She’d punched him in the face; he’d yanked her hair. But she was afraid to leave him, afraid to suffer the agony of being apart. The last time they separated, she hadn’t been able to eat, dropping from 112 to 99 lbs. Her friend begged her to leave town, book a job, call her mother. No, she said. She’d miss her dog. She ended the conversation abruptly, saying she was going off to clean the house.

Her body was shortly discovered by her boyfriend. She underwent an autopsy today and the results are expected by the end of the week. So sad.
