Mya-Lecia, sem lék meðal annars í þáttunum Millie Inbetween og Almost Never, lést þann 7. apríl síðastliðinn eftir að hafa hnigið niður að því er fram kemur í yfirlýsingu frá umboðsmönnum leikkonunnar. Ekki liggur fyrir um dánarorsök.
Breskir fjölmiðlar greindu frá andlátinu í gær. „Mya-Lecia var dáð og stór hluti „BBC Children“-fjölskyldunnar og mjög hæfileikarík leikkona, söngkona og dansari,“ segir í yfirlýsingu frá breska ríkissjónvarpinu.
Emily Atack, 29 ára leikkona sem einnig fer með hlutverk í Almost Never, birti mynd af Mya-Lecia á Instagram-síðu sinni þar sem hún minnist hennar og segist vera í áfalli vegna fráfalls hennar.
So shocked and sad to hear about lovely Mya-Lecia Naylor. She was a beautiful and talented girl. A complete joy to be around on the set of Almost Never. Sending all my love to her family & friends. Rest in peace beautiful girl xView this post on Instagram
