Influencer Mary Magdalene, a 33-year-old social media personality, was captured on video being carted away by police officers in Thailand weeks before she fell to her death from a high-rise building on December 9, 2025.
Video footage obtained by TMZ shows that on November 21, 2025, Mary Magdalene, whose real name was Denise Ivonne Jarvis Gongora, was seen unable to walk and was lifted by Thai officers into a cart on Krabi walking street. She exclaimed confusion and claimed she was “drugged” as officers pushed the cart towards her hotel, with a second clip showing her discussing the trauma of being left alone due to her popularity.
Gongora’s body was discovered on December 9, 2025, in the parking area of an apartment building in Patong, Phuket Island, Thailand, after she fell from the ninth floor. Police found a pair of flip-flops believed to be hers on that floor, and the Patong police department has launched an investigation into the circumstances surrounding her death.
The influencer had amassed over 400,000 followers across several Instagram accounts and was widely recognized for her extensive cosmetic surgeries, including multiple nose jobs, butt and breast implants, and tattoos covering much of her body and face. She also shared her elaborate psychedelic paintings and adult content on the subscription-based platform OnlyFans, building a significant online presence.
On December 8, the day before her death, Gongora posted a final Instagram message that included images from “The Truman Show” and the lines “good afternoon, good evening and good night,” along with a blurry childhood photo, suggesting a reflective or distressed state. Her brother Ivan later shared tributes on social media, expressing deep love and grief, and highlighting her creativity and the impact she had on those close to her.
The incident underscores the potential pressures and mental health challenges faced by influencers in the digital age, particularly given Gongora’s previous comments about the downsides of fame. The ongoing police investigation aims to determine whether her death was accidental or involved other factors, with authorities continuing to examine evidence from the scene.
As the community mourns her loss, the story has sparked discussions about the well-being of social media personalities and the need for support systems in the industry. The video of her being carted away adds a poignant layer to the tragedy, highlighting moments of vulnerability before her untimely death.
