Eva Ekvall height - How tall is Eva Ekvall?

Ekvall's death brought an outpouring of condolences from Venezuelans, including some prominent artists and politicians. Ekvall's husband posted a photo on Twitter Sunday showing a close-up of his hand holding hers, resting on a hospital bed, with the words "Always together... I love you wife". On March 1, 2012, her husband established the Eva Ekvall Foundation.

When told to have had a recurrence of her disease, Ekvall moved to the United States and checked into University General Hospital in Houston, Texas. Despite the intense medical treatment, her health condition began deteriorating and she died in the afternoon of December 17, 2011. In a statement, Ekvall's family said her remains were to be cremated in Houston.

In February 2010, just months after giving birth to her only child, Ekvall was diagnosed with advanced breast cancer, and underwent eight months of treatment that included chemotherapy, radiotherapy and a double radical mastectomy. She chronicled this experience in a book of photographs, Fuera de Foco (Out of Focus), released on December 2010. She went on to become an advocate for SenosAyuda, a cancer awareness group.

Ekvall married radio producer John Fabio Bermúdez in September 2007. The couple had one daughter, Miranda, born in July 2009.

Aged 17, Ekvall was crowned Miss Venezuela 2000, and the next year was third runner-up in the Miss Universe Pageant. As a Buddhist, she was the first non-Christian to have won the title of Miss Venezuela. Mother Agency Mariela Centeno
