Katie May, a model known as the “Queen of Snapchat,” has died at 34, TMZ reported.

Ms. May had suffered a stroke on Monday.

She had modeled for Playboy and Sports Illustrated and boasted nearly 2 million Instagram followers, according to TMZ.



Ms. May had complained of neck pain recently and sought treatment before a blockage in her cartoid artery caused the stroke, her family told the New York Daily News.

She was the mother of a 7-year-old daughter.
