Georgina Cooper, the British supermodel who rose to fame in the 1990s and was known as London’s “original gap-toothed girl,” has died at 46, The Post can confirm.

A friend of fellow ’90s modeling icon Kate Moss, Cooper passed away while vacationing on the Greek island of Kos only months after getting married.

A source on the Greek island said she died after “falling ill” suddenly the day before she was set to fly back to her home in the UK.

Cooper’s former agent, Dean Goodman, told The Post, “I can confirm the death of the beauty that was Georgina Cooper. She was a special one, like no other i have ever looked after, she was real… hard to find these day’s and she will be sorly [sic] missed by me and the many others that she touched their lives.”

He continued, “Seeing the outpouring of love for her is beautiful and shows what a special person she was, a naughty funny soul, and a smile that lit up any room or catwalk.”

Cooper said “I do” to her husband, Nigel, in June. The pair exchanged vows at her home in  Maidstone, Kent, before heading to a local pub for their wedding reception.

Daily Mail was the first to report her death.

According to the outlet, she was taken to the main hospital on Kos, but her condition was so grave that she was flown by an air ambulance to Crete, where she remained in intensive care for five days before her death. Cooper’s body was allegedly flown back to England last week.

“She loved Greece and told me that she was going back with her new husband – but she has tragically died there a fortnight ago,” Goodman said in a statement to Daily Mail.

“Georgina had been unwell during Covid and had developed some health problems and had been in and out of hospital,” he explained, noting she “had plans for the future.”

“She had just married and was looking forward to her life. Everybody is devastated. She was a genuine superstar,” he added.

Cooper’s cause of death has not been revealed.

The model earned her claim to fame by appearing in one of Bon Jovi’s music videos when she was just 15. She went on to walk in major runway shows throughout London and graced the covers of high-profile magazines like Vogue and The Face.

 In a 2018 interview with The Cultural Omnivore, Cooper revealed she had quit modeling and started working in the hospitality industry after welcoming her son, Sonny.

“I work in the hospitality industry, and I love it because I’m a people person. After I had my son I just couldn’t bear to leave him alone and I wanted to be there for him. I tried to continue modeling but it broke my heart when I had to leave him for work,” she said at the time. “I focused on modeling assignments in London but my life was at a crossroads and I decided that Sonny came first.”

Model Jada Parfitt shared an emotional tribute to Cooper, revealing her “friends and family are absolutely devastated” by the news of her passing.

“Georgina was a ray of light, a very popular model who was riotous fun, always laughing and being naughty in all the best ways. We all wanted to hang out with George backstage. Her achievements in the industry were huge,” she told Daily Mail.

Goodman also paid homage to Cooper in a heartfelt post.

“Traveled lots together, to New York and Milan and always had fun together,” he wrote. “I’m in total shock, and talked to her not long ago to meet up after she just got married. She was the original gap toothed girl! I will miss her immensely, RIP in peace, Georgie girl, I will never forget you and always love you, see you on the other side.”

The Post has reached out to Moss for comment.
