Death

[edit]

Walewska died on the night of 21 September 2023 while travelling to São Paulo for the launch of her book. According to the Civil Police, who are investigating the circumstances, she fell from the 17th floor of a building in the Jardins neighbourhood, west of central São Paulo.[7][8] According to the document, the incident took place at 6:09 pm on that date.[9]

According to a police report obtained by the newspaper O Tempo, Walewska left a letter on the table in the leisure area, together with a bottle of wine with a glass, both half-full with wine, as well as a cellphone and a folder containing the letter, which was apparently a farewell message from her.[10]

Walewska's death is being investigated as a suicide.[11] Four death notes were found, each addressed towards someone, namely Walewska's parents, her brother, her friend and best man Luiz Gustavo Del Maestro, and two friends from volleyball, coach Bernardinho and player Virna Dias. Dias revealed that in her letter, Walewska wrote that the instigator for the suicide was discovering her husband had a child with another woman.[12][13]
