USA: The TV correspondent, who won the miss usa pageant in 2019, passed away on Sunday, Jan. 30, after falling from a "higher elevation" of a 60-story condominium in New York City, a spokesperson for the NYPD confirmed to E! News. Kryst, who lived on the ninth floor of the building, was 30 years old. While a medical examiner has yet to determine the official cause, authorities said Kryst's death appears to be a suicide.
"In devastation and great
sorrow, we share the passing of our beloved Cheslie," the lawyer and
fashion blogger's family said in a statement. "Her great light was
one that inspired others around the world with her beauty and strength. She
cared, she loved, she laughed and she shined."
"Cheslie embodied love and
served others, whether through her work as an attorney fighting for social
justice, as Miss USA
and as a host on EXTRA," the message continued. "But most
importantly, as a daughter, sister, friend, mentor and colleague–we know her
impact will live on."
