A young mum who became an influencer after broadcasting her day-to-day life with her two kids online, has died suddenly.
Ren Rongrong from Shijiazhuang, in China's northern Hebei Province, passed away five days after first developing a cold, before the illness turned into pneumonia. The 38-year-old had recently given birth to a baby daughter, but despite having her hands full raising two little girls, she managed to find the time and share videos of her daily life with her fans on Douyin, the Chinese version of TikTok. There, she frequently posting about putting the children to bed and breastfeeding her newborn.
Aside from her parenting content, the mum influencer would also promote various women's products on her profile. But her fans were shocked when just days after posting about having caught a cold, her profile shared the news of her sudden death.
The sad post said that Ren suddenly fell ill and rescue efforts were unsuccessful, with the mum sadly passing away on January 24 at the age of 38. The account later mentioned keeping the account as a memory for family and children.

On Tuesday, the doctor recommended sedation, anaesthesia, and respiratory support with a ventilator. Despite six rounds of rescue attempts, there was no improvement, leading to a deep coma. The diagnosis indicated severe pneumonia, type one respiratory failure, and infectious shock. The post expressed regret and self-blame for not taking her to the hospital earlier.
