Kaylee Hottle’s cause of death

It was Kaylee Hottle's father, Joshua Hottle, who announced that the young actress had passed away. He revealed that she died in a car crash. Joshua shared the tragic news in an emotional Facebook livestream using American Sign Language (ASL). In the livestream, he shared that he was flying to Maryland to bring his daughter’s body home. 

According to him, the fatal car crash took place when he was visiting Texas. While there, he received a call from authorities informing him about the accident. However, this was not the only call he received. The second time that they called Joshua, they gave him the unfortunate news that Kaylee’s heart had stopped working when they were on their way to the hospital. Joshua captioned the 23-minute livestream video as “I am taking a flight that I never would like to take.”

For those who don't know, Kaylee had been born deaf. Growing up, she attended the Texas School for the Deaf. Her acting career began at a very young age, with her first project reportedly being a commercial. After a few years, she launched to stardom when she became a part of Godzilla vs. Kong. She has also appeared in Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire and Magnum P.I. Season 4. 

Even though her acting career has now been cut short, when she was alive, Kaylee had the opportunity to work with Alexander Skarsgard. He even learned ASL to communicate with the late actress. Praising her acting skills, Alexander said in an interview: 

"It’s her first movie. It’s fascinating how comfortable she is in front of the camera and how quickly she takes notes from the director Adam [Wingard]. He’ll explain something and she’ll be like ‘got it, got it,’ then she’ll just do it, and everyone’s like, ‘The f–k?' She’s so professional and … there’s so much going on on her face. Her expression and the subtleties of that is fascinating to watch."
