Add BollywoodShaadis on GoogleAustralian-American model and swimwear designer Sahara Ray lost her life at the young age of 34. Her family confirmed her death to TMZ on October 18, 2026. Tragically, Sahara passed away just a few months after she became the mother of a baby girl, Snow. The model documented her pregnancy on social media. Even her poignant final post testified to her love for her infant.
Sahara's social media in the months leading to her death was filled with pictures of Snow, but there isn't a single photo of the little one's dad. It sparked curiosity about the man's identity, and a recent report revealed who he is and how old he is.
Sahara Ray kept the identity of her baby daddy private until her death. She has always been secretive about her dating life, with little information about who she dated, when, and why they split. Following the 34-year-old model's demise, the father of her 10-month-old child has been identified as Michael Bradley. His name was revealed through the birth certificate of their daughter, Snow, which was obtained by TMZ.
According to official records, Michael is 38 years old, which makes him four years older than his baby mama. Notably, no other information about him or his relationship with Sahara is publicly known. It is also unclear whether he and Sahara were married or just dating. As for little Snow, she was born at 12:19 a.m. on January 27, 2026, in Los Angeles, just 10 months before her mother, Sahara Ray passed away.
Sahara's last post was dedicated to her baby girl, who smiled brightly in the pictures shared by her mom. Baby Snow in her little dresses and pastel green onesie alongwith matching bow hair ties was enough to make someone's day. Sahara shared her final Instagram post on July 19, 2026, and the carousel featured her daughter, Snow, smiling and playing.
Notably, in one of the pics, a man's tattooed hands can be seen holding Snow; it might be her father, Michael Bradley; however, there's no confirmation. In another image, the baby had a shocked or confused expression, which was as adorable as her laugh. Sahara Ray gushed over the little one and her antics and captioned the post as:
"My whole heart [white heart emoji] baby Snow."
Sahara's death in her thirties has left many in disbelief. In an interview with TMZ, the bereaved family revealed that the model passed away at night while surrounded by her family at the hospital. They added that she was loved by many. The family's statement could be read as:
"She passed away last night surrounded by family at the hospital. She was so loved."
Sahara's untimely death sparked curiosity regarding the cause of her demise. Initial reports from outlets like the Daily Mail suggested that she had a fentanyl overdose, following which emergency services were informed and she was put on a ventilator. One of Sahara Ray's ex-boyfriends, Christopher Miles, had claimed that the model took her own life. However, an official statement from her family and later news reports noted that an official cause of death has not been confirmed yet.
Sahara Ray also previously spoke about living with Guillain-Barré syndrome, a rare autoimmune neurological disorder which causes muscle weakness. The model developed the disorder after being struck by a drunk driver in April 2024, which left her partially paralyzed. "It basically sent my body into shock, which sent my body into this crazy sickness," she said in a video following the tragedy.
"I'm really hoping and praying that I get to walk again someday," Sahara added. Notably, no direct link has been established between her death and the ailment and the exact cause of her death is yet to be publicly revealed.
We extend our heartfelt condolences to Sahara Ray's family as they cope with her loss.
