The sister of Australian actress Jessica Falkholt has died after a car crash which also killed their parents and another man. Annabelle, 21, died in a Sydney hospital on Friday. Jessica, 28, who appeared on TV soap Home and Away in 2016, remains in a critical condition.
The family were caught up in a two-car highway collision on Boxing Day near Ulladulla, New South Wales. Their parents and the driver of the other car died at the scene. The horror crash has made headlines across Australia, with police calling it “an absolute tragedy”. Annabelle’s boyfriend had shared a Snapchat picture of them both shortly after the crash, asking for prayers and support.
Both sisters were pulled out alive from the wreckage and airlifted to separate hospitals. Jessica is in a coma. Officials have not said whether she is aware of her family’s deaths. There has been an outpouring of grief from Home and Away fans on social media for the young actress who played the character of Hope Morrison for 16 episodes on the show.
