Tragically, medical professionals stated that “nothing could have been done differently”.
Lisa rose to fame after her appearance on the Swedish reality show Robinson, which was a take on the Survivor format, following a group of strangers attempting survival alone in an isolated location.
Her husband took to Instagram to share the heartbreaking news, calling her a “unique person” who “wanted to help everyone, and often forgot herself along the way”.
He wrote: “Last night you left us. It still feels like a nightmare, and we are trying to understand the inconceivable.
“There has never been anyone like her, and it is noticeable in the enormous love and sadness that is now flowing in from all directions.
“Lisa’s aorta ruptured, and her life could not be saved. She had an underlying connective tissue disease which she knew was a risk, but no-one could predict when or how it would affect her.
“According to the doctor responsible, there was nothing triggered by external circumstances.
“There was nothing either she nor we could have done differently.
“Life can be brutally unfair and mean, because the world needed more like Lisa, not less.”
“She was always looking for others before herself, lived intensely, loved strongly, and gave more than most. She was everywhere, all the time, but now she finally gets to rest for a while.”
Lisa is survived by her husband Andreas Johnson and their two children, daughter Ella and son Tim
