Influencer Klaudia Zakrzewska, known online as Klaudiaglam, has died after being struck by a vehicle outside a London nightclub following a violent altercation involving several social media personalities.
The incident occurred in the early hours of Sunday, April 26, 2026, after a fight broke out between a group of women, including Zakrzewska and Gabrielle Carrington, a former contestant on the UK’s “X Factor” who performs under the name RielleUK.
According to police and witness accounts shared online, Carrington entered a parked black Mercedes and drove into the crowd, hitting Zakrzewska and two others. Zakrzewska sustained life-threatening injuries and was rushed to hospital, where she later succumbed to her wounds.
Carrington, 29, was arrested at the scene and has since been charged with murder, along with additional counts including grievous bodily harm, dangerous driving and driving under the influence. She remains in custody pending further proceedings.
Zakrzewska, who had over 260,000 followers on Instagram, was a prominent figure in the influencer community, frequently sharing content related to fashion, beauty, and lifestyle. Carrington, with more than 350,000 Instagram followers, had transitioned from reality TV to influencer work after her appearance on “X Factor” in 2013.
Police officials expressed condolences to Zakrzewska’s family and friends, stating that their thoughts are with all those affected by the tragedy. Investigations are ongoing, with authorities reviewing video footage circulating on social media that appears to capture the moments before and during the collision.
The case has drawn attention not only for its tragic outcome but also for highlighting the potential real-world consequences of online feuds escalating into physical violence. As legal proceedings move forward, the incident serves as a sobering reminder of how quickly disputes among public figures can spiral into irreversible harm.
