The reason for Jacky Oh‘s sudden death at age 32 has been declared.
On Friday, a representative for the Miami-Dade Medical Examiner’s Office confirmed to PEOPLE that the former MTV personality (born Jacklyn Smith) died from complications from cosmetic surgery, as was first reported by TMZ.
The update comes four months after PEOPLE confirmed that the Wild ‘N Out star died on May 31. At the time, a BET Media Group spokesperson said in a statement shared with PEOPLE: “We are deeply saddened by the passing of Jacklyn Smith, known to the world as Jacky Oh, a talented Wild ‘N Out family member whose impact will be forever treasured and missed.”
“Jacky Oh was a loving friend and beloved colleague of the Wild ‘N Out cast throughout five seasons,” the spokesperson continued. “More importantly, she was a tremendous mother to three beautiful children.”
“The BET Media Group extends our sincere condolences to the Smith family, DC Young Fly, B Simone, Nick Cannon, and all friends who loved and cared for Jacky Oh during this difficult time,” their statement concluded.
DC Young Fly, the MTV personality’s longtime partner, was also among those who shared emotional tributes in Jacky Oh’s honor. The pair met in 2015 and eventually welcomed three children: Nova, Nala and Prince.
“We thank everyone for their well wishes and ask for privacy during this difficult time,” he said in a statement shared with PEOPLE.
