‘Bling Empire’ Star, 51, Injured in Skiing Accident

Lynn Ban, a jewelry designer and star of the Netflix show “Bling Empire: New York,” passed away at the age of 52 after a skiing accident and subsequent brain surgery. Her son, Sebastian, shared the news on her Instagram account, describing Lynn as his best friend, a loving mother, and someone who cared deeply for others.

Following a skiing mishap in Aspen, Lynn underwent emergency surgery for a brain bleed. Despite initial assessments clearing her for a concussion, she was rushed to a trauma hospital for treatment. Through it all, her husband, Jett Kain, remained by her side.

Known for her brand, Lynn Ban Jewelry, she adorned celebrities like Rihanna and Beyoncé with her designs. Her appearance on “Bling Empire: New York” showcased her glamorous yet down-to-earth personality to viewers.
