Supermodel Georgina Cooper, known for her gapped-tooth smile, has passed away in Greece at 46 with big industry names mourning the loss.
Cooper, who had just married her husband Nigel, was in Kos, an island is Greece, when she became sick, according to the Daily Mail.
The outlet said that she was then flown from the main Kos hospital to Crete where she was in intensive care. After five days, the model and mother-of-one died, with her body being brought to back to England just last week.

Her agent Dean Goodman told the Daily Mail that she was sick during COVID and developed health issues. He said that she was in and out of the hospital, and called her a “genuine superstar.”
The publication said that she was scouted at 13-years-old and was in a Bon Jovi music-video when she was 15.
The model was friends with many in the industry: Kate Moss, Jade Parfitt, Erin O’Connor and others.
Cooper appeared on the cover of Vogue and modeled for designers like Alexander McQueen, Burberry and Stella McCartney.
She decided to step back from the industry to raise her son, Sonny, according to the outlet.
“You were an incredibly kind and funny human-being, Georgina,” friend O’Connor said in a post. “I/we all admired and loved you so much for the warmth, generosity and gentle mischief you brought to the world.”
