A coroner has ruled that Playboy model Katie May died after a visit to a chiropractor left her with a fatal tear in her neck.

The 34-year-old model passed away suddenly in February this year after she fell during a photo-shoot and hurt her neck, she later went to hospital but was released the same day.

However, it appears that the pain didn't go away and Katie took to Twitter to ask her followers if they had a remedy for her neck pain.

Katie then took a trip to a chiropractor and it's here the injury that would kill her was inflicted. According to TMZ, Katie died from a blunt force injury, which tore left vertebral artery, cutting off the blood supply to her brain caused by the neck manipulation the chiropractor carried out.

Her death is listed as an accident. It is not yet known if her family plans to take legal action against the chiropractor.

Tragically, Katie was a single mum and leaves behind a seven-year-old daughter. Fans of the model, who was known as the Queen of Snapchat, set up a GoFund page to raise money for the little girl. Donations to the page currently stand at $31,554.
