Nicole Brenda Santos Marins, a 28-year-old Brazilian personal trainer and content creator, tragically passed away in a motorcycle accident. Her husband, Alisson Cravo, announced the news on Instagram on August 19.
According to the Federal Highway Police, Marins rear-ended a stopped Fiat Doblo on the roadside due to mechanical issues. While stationary, she was struck by a large vehicle that fled the scene. The Fiat’s driver was unharmed, but Marins’ injuries were fatal.
Cravo, who was at the gym during the crash, rushed to the scene. On Instagram, he shared a heartfelt tribute, calling Marins an “amazing woman, warrior, and wonderful mother.” Their 6-year-old son was often referred to as her “prince.”
He described his devastation upon seeing her at the scene, saying he stayed by her side until the end. “We were together until the end,” he wrote. “It’s hard to smile without your smile.”
Marins’ final Instagram post, shared a day before the accident, showed her and Cravo enjoying a hot air balloon ride together.
