In heartbreaking news that shook social media, popular Turkish blogger Nihal Candan has passed away at the age of 30 following complications from anorexia nervosa, a severe eating disorder that led to a dramatic and dangerous weight loss.
Reports confirm that Nihal lost over 37 kilograms in the past two years, with her weight dropping to just 23 kilograms. Her health sharply deteriorated during her hospital treatment, and despite the doctors’ efforts, her heart stopped and could not be revived.
Fashion designer Pınar Kerimoğlu was the first to raise concerns about Nihal’s critical condition through Instagram, writing:
"I called and asked how she was… Unfortunately, Nihal’s heart stopped again. CPR is being performed now."
Later, blogger Sıla Doğu confirmed her death on social media, prompting an outpouring of grief and condolences from fans and followers who had been deeply moved by Nihal’s brave battle with her illness.
