Moroccan media personality and actress Kaoutar Boudarraja passed away on Friday morning at the age of forty, following a quiet but difficult battle with cancer.
Despite her deteriorating health in recent months, Boudarraja chose to face her illness privately, stepping away from the spotlight and public life. She passed away at her family home after being discharged from a private clinic in Casablanca, where she had been receiving care.
The news of her passing was confirmed by her close friend, jewelry designer Maryam Al-Abyad — known as «Mimi LeBlanc» in an Instagram story.
According to media reports, Boudarraja was laid to rest in a private, intimate ceremony in accordance with her wishes. The funeral was attended only by close family and a few friends.
