MELBOURNE, AUSTRALIA: A shocking twist has come in the case of Australian reality star Danni Erskine, after it was alleged that she died in an accident. Previously in May, someone named Dee, who claimed to be the actress’ sister, reportedly said that she lost her life after being “T-boned” by a driver while returning from shopping on April 28.
The person had asserted to So Dramatic!, “It was a horrible tragedy.” Dee also shared that the ‘Bride and Prejudice’ star died on April 29. She stated, “As she went through a green light, a driver was intoxicated and T-boned her. She was alive and taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital. She passed away the morning of the 29th [of April] at 12.01 am.”

‘This can happen to anyone’
“She will be loved, very much missed and it was a horrible tragedy. Please be safe on the roads. This can happen to anyone. She was 28. Full of life and trying her best to move on and meet someone. Now she won’t get that chance,” Dee added.
Besides, a now-deleted message posted on Erskine’s Instagram page read, as per 7news.com.au, “Rest in peace Dannii Erskine, 1995-2023. We appreciate and respect the wishes we have received as a family. Thank you for your support and respect.”
‘No fatal or life-threatening collisions’
However, an unnamed source has now told 7NEWS.com.au, “She is alive.” Also, a statement from Victoria Police noted, “We can’t comment on any individuals due to privacy legislation but I can confirm we have no fatal or life-threatening collisions recorded in the North Melbourne area in the past month.”
The Coroner’s Court of Victoria’s spokesperson told the publication, “The Court does not have a record of the death of Dannii Erskine.” Another anonymous source added, “She’s obviously not very well mentally but she’s alive. She’s an inpatient at a hospital... with a broken ankle and claiming her social media has been hacked.”
‘It just doesn’t add up’
Apparently, this is not the first time a rumor regarding Erskine’s well-being has spread. Erskine’s former partner Denton Ansley reportedly said that in 2021, it was declared that she had died. Ansley added, “And then, like, a day or two later it came out that she was like, ‘Oh no, I got hacked, it didn’t actually happen and obviously I’m still alive.’"
“It wasn’t reported last time, obviously, but this time I thought, okay, maybe there is some truth behind it, because ... I can’t tell you if it’s true or not (this time) because I don’t know. But it just doesn’t add up - there are quite a few things that just don’t add up. It just doesn’t make sense to me.”
Erskine and Ansley starred together in the controversial 'Forbidden Wedding' series in 2019 but they did not get a green signal for marriage from the actress’ mother and sister. At the time, the man reportedly shared, “It’s not the greatest feeling ever to hear these things, but at the same time, I don’t let it get to me. They’re just words, and it doesn’t mean we can’t mend that relationship.”
He added, “The next idea was just to head to Bali and elope, but this opportunity came up and we thought this process might be beneficial for not only our relationship but the whole family as well.”
