Bollywood actress Jacqueliene Fernandez is mourning the loss of her mother, Kim Fernandez, who passed away on April 6 after a two-week-long battle for life. She was admitted to Mumbai’s Lilavati Hospital on March 24 following a heart stroke. Despite the best efforts of the medical team and the presence of her daughter by her side, Kim breathed her last earlier today.
The news has sent a wave of sadness through the entertainment industry and among Jacqueliene’s fans. While the exact cause of death has not been officially confirmed, early reports suggest she had suffered a heart stroke. Kim Fernandez had a similar health scare in 2022 when she experienced a heart attack, raising concerns about her fragile condition over the past few years.
Upon hearing of her mother’s critical condition, Jacqueliene immediately flew back to India, cutting short her overseas work commitments to be by her side. The actress, known for keeping her private life away from the media glare, had always spoken fondly of her parents, particularly her mother’s unwavering support.
In light of her mother’s deteriorating health, Jacqueliene also cancelled her much-anticipated performance at the IPL match between Rajasthan Royals and Kolkata Knight Riders last month, which was to be held at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium in Guwahati. Prioritising her mother’s health, the actress chose to stay by Kim’s side during the critical days.
As condolences pour in from across the film industry and fans worldwide, Jacqueliene remains out of the public eye, mourning this immense personal loss.
On the Work Front
Professionally, Jacqueliene was last seen in Fateh, alongside Sonu Sood. She will next be seen in the much-awaited comedy franchise entries Welcome To The Jungle and Housefull 5. As she navigates this heartbreaking moment, fans and colleagues alike are sending love and strength to the actress, who has always exuded positivity and resilience both on and off screen.
