AN OnlyFans model has died aged 25 days before her baby son's first Christmas.
Rachel Mee is said to have "adored" baby Kyro "with all her heart" and was described as a "beautiful young girl" by friends.
The influencer, from Newcastle, known at Rachel Kaitlyn, had more than 40,000 followers on Instagram and also worked as a dancer.
Close friend Claire Robinson said: "This Christmas will be Kyro's first, and devastatingly his mummy will not be there."
Her cause of death is unconfirmed, but Claire added: "Rachel sadly lost her battle with the pressures of this world.
"We are all so saddened with this devastating news, how this world has failed such a beautiful young girl and how she felt she had no other option [than] to no longer be here.

You’re Not Alone
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide.
It doesn't discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It's the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it's rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You're Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let's all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You're Not Alone.
