The entertainment world and fans across Mexico are mourning the sudden death of Yanin Rocío Campos Ruiz, a beloved contestant from MasterChef México and TikTok influencer. The 38-year-old lost her life following a serious car accident near Chihuahua, where her SUV collided with a parked vehicle on the Periférico Rodolfo Almada around 6:30 a.m. on Saturday, August 2, 2025.
Local authorities confirm that Yanin lost control of her black GMC Terrain, crashing into a second vehicle while driving eastbound. She was immediately transported to Hospital Christus Mugerza del Parque, where she was placed in intensive care. Tragically, she passed away two days later, on Monday, August 4, due to the severity of her injuries.
Her brother, Raúl Campos, broke the news to devastated fans and friends via Facebook, sharing funeral details and inviting loved ones to say their goodbyes at Funeraria Hernández.
Yanin first gained national attention during the 2018 season of MasterChef México, securing sixth place, and later returned for the 2019 “La Revancha” edition. Originally a nurse from Chihuahua, she transitioned into media through culinary passion and social media, amassing nearly 100,000 followers on TikTok and a strong presence on Instagram.
