In a statement on the page, the family expressed their sadness at the news, as well as a description of what had happened.

The family revealed that they received a call at 4.30 am, with someone screaming: "Ashten is dying, Ashten is dying."

Relatives recalled the conversation, revealing that it was a living nightmare before they watched Christina rapidly decline in health following her cardiac arrest.

They described her as "such a caring and loving free spirit that always took the time to bring a smile to anyone's face she crossed paths with".

Ending the tribute, they wrote: "Christina Ashten Gourkani you will forever be our guardian angel."

Many of the online stars' fans and followers have paid tribute following the news breaking.

Fellow OnlyFans model Mary Magdalene paid an emotional tribute on Instagram.

She wrote: "I don't know her, [but] I would always just randomly see her on Instagram and think she was really pretty but that is so sad she just died from plastic surgery.

Another follower added: "I am very shocked and saddened by this sudden news. She, along with other Instagram models I truly admired and had many respects for.

"I remembered one time when she wished me a very early birthday in a post. I will miss you dearly, May Christina Ashten Gourkani Rest In Peace."
