New insights have emerged regarding the sudden death of renowned hairstylist Jesus Guerrero. According to a report from the County of Los Angeles Medical Examiner’s Office, the primary cause of death was identified as pneumonia, accompanied by cryptococcosis, a type of fungal infection, with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) being a secondary factor.
This revelation comes three months following his passing, which was publicly announced by his sister, Gris Guerrero, on February 22. Gris shared that Jesus had been diagnosed with gastritis a few months prior to his death. She expressed confusion over the severity of his condition, stating, “It was never anything to get that bad,” hinting that there may be more to uncover surrounding his health battles.
Gris also disclosed that, according to the documentation provided to their family, Jesus had experienced a significant weight loss of 20 pounds shortly before he died. She suggested that his deteriorating health could be related to his stomach issues, saying that he faced challenges with eating due to pain, a concern shared among his close loved ones.
Jesus Guerrero was celebrated not only for his skills but also for his collaborations with celebrities, including Kylie Jenner, Jennifer Lopez, and Kali Uchis, leaving a notable impact on the beauty industry. This tragic situation highlights the importance of understanding health complications and monitoring well-being, even in those who appear to be thriving in their professional lives.
As his family seeks answers, this serves as a poignant reminder of the fragility of life and the significant health challenges that can arise unexpectedly.
