Cops haven’t ruled out foul play in the 24-year-old’s untimely passing that continues to be investigated.

Aurora, from Palermo, Italy, tragically fell from the balcony on the night of June 21 at her home in the Austrian capital of Vienna.

The flight attendant sadly succumbed to her injuries in hospital two days after her initial fall.

Aurora was at home with her 27-year-old boyfriend, also from Palermo, when she plunged from the balcony, according to cops.

He was the one who called emergency services after her fall.

Aurora worked as a flight attendant for Lauda Europe, a Maltese low-cost airline that operates on behalf of parent company Ryanair.

Authorities said her unnamed boyfriend is a flight attendant for another airline.

Investigators are checking her phone and devices to get an idea of the circumstances leading up to the young woman’s fatal fall.

They are also awaiting the results of an autopsy that was requested by her grieving family.

Their lawyer Alberto Raffadale said: “We have filed two complaints, one with the prosecutor’s office in Vienna and one with the Palermo prosecutor’s office.”

The investigation into Aurora’s tragic death continues.

The tragedy comes after it was announced that the truth behind Brit Kirsty Maxwell’s death is to be revealed in a new podcast.

Kirsty, 27, died after falling from the 10th floor apartment occupied by five men from Nottingham when on a hen party.

At first, it was suspected Kirsty had been murdered, but following a Spanish police investigation, the case was shelved and her death was recorded as an accident.

Her grieving family, however, refuse to accept this.

“I know she didn’t jump,” says Kirsty’s aunt Angela Lees, 64. “She wouldn’t take her own life.

“There’s no way. That girl had everything to live for. She didn’t sleepwalk. She had a drink in her, but she wasn’t falling-about drunk.”

Now, the family’s eight-year fight to discover the truth is being told by a new podcast.

What Happened To Kirsty Maxwell? is written, narrated and produced by true crime podcaster Naomi Channell, who decided to make the series after meeting Kirsty’s family at a CrimeCon event in 2023, which they were attending to raise awareness of their campaign.
