News of Sydney’s death came courtesy of an announcement posted by her family Thursday morning.
“We will always love you so much Sydney. I am so proud of how hard you fought. I love you,” they wrote.
The announcement comes just two days after Sydne’s brother, Austin Towle, shared in a TikTok video that she had been moved to hospice care and was “surrounded by her friends and family.”
According to TMZ, Sydney had been battling cholangiocarcinoma, a rare bile duct cancer.
Her bravery and candor in the face of adversity helped to earn over one million followers across platforms.

The New York native shared every difficult step of her cancer journey, inspiring countless fans around the world in the process.
Last month, she announced that she was soon to enter the next step of the clinical trial she was participating in, which involved tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapy.
Sydney told fans that she had been posting less frequently due to the constant pain she was experiencing. She added that she was continuing to stay positive as she spent the last month in the hospital.
Sydney was diagnosed with cancer in 2023 after she noticed a bump protruding from her abdomen.
Earlier this summer, the Dartmouth grad launched a second career as a runway model, walking for Post Swim’s The Chemo Club collaboration at Miami Swim Week and had a collaboration with Aerie.
Though Sydney’s life was cut tragically short, clearly, she made the most of her brief time on this planet.
Our thoughts go out to Sydney’s loved ones during this enormously difficult time.
