Missing model who fell into sea rescuing puppies during storm is found dead mirror.co.uk

A missing model who fell into the sea during a storm in Brazil has been found dead. Caroline Bittencourt’s husband Jorge Sestini was rescued on Sunday around two hours after jumping into the water off Sao Paulo to make a failed attempt to save her. He watched in horror as she jumped off the boat to rescue her two pet puppies but vanished amid the stormy waters. The model’s own dad Orley participated in the search for the 37-year-old and told a local TV programme how he helped pull her body from the sea yesterday afternoon. Bittencourt, who also worked as a TV presenter, made the headlines after being asked to leave Brazilian ex-footballer Ronaldo’s wedding to Daniella Cicarelli in France in February 2005.
