TikTok Star Sydney Towle Dies at 26 After Nearly 3 Years of Fighting Cancer
Sydney Towle, a 26-year-old influencer with more than 1 million followers, has died after a nearly three-year battle with a rare form of bile duct cancer.
Sydney was diagnosed with cholangiocarcinoma at just 23. Her family announced that she passed away peacefully on August 5, 2026, surrounded by loved ones.
Just days before her death, Sydney entered hospice care after doctors determined that further treatment was no longer an option.
Despite her diagnosis, Sydney continued making memories and inspiring others. In May, she walked the runway at Miami Swim Week while battling stage 4 cancer.
Her family hopes Sydney will be remembered for her courage, strength, and determination to keep living fully despite everything she faced. 🕊️❤️
