Social media influencer Klaudia Zakrzewska has died six days after being hit by a car outside a London nightclub. The Essex resident was taken to hospital after the accident at 04:30 BST on Argyll Street in Soho on Sunday 19 April 2026.
The injuries proved fatal and the 32-year-old influencer died on Saturday, April 25, 2026. Klaudia had over 367,000 followers on Instagram.
Detective Inspector Alison Foxwell expressed grief and her deepest sympathies to Klaudia’s family and friends. She said: “Our thoughts are also with everyone affected by this.”
Klaudia’s mother described the late social media personality as having a pure heart, adding: “This is the most devastating time our family has ever faced. Those who know me understand how much I love my daughter and what a special bond we have.”
The crash also injured several other people, including an elderly man who suffered life-changing injuries and a woman who suffered a minor wrist injury.
A 29-year-old woman named Gabrielle Carrington, who was driving the car, was arrested and charged with attempted murder; however, the charge has now been changed to murder.
She was also charged with drink driving, dangerous driving and grievous bodily harm with intent.
Carrington appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on 21 April 2026 and was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey on 19 May.
