A former reality television star was shot dead by her partner and found inside their luxury residence.

According to reports from local media outlets, her husband first shot her in the head and then turned the gun on himself. The deceased couple’s remains were discovered by the authorities after they were reported missing by loved ones.

Pauliana Lerch who was just 33 was a popular contestant on the hit reality television series ‘Top Model’. She was a native of Poland who was known for her beautiful smile and great looks.

Her family confirmed that they became worried after they couldn’t get in contact with her for more than one week.

This led to the cops carrying out an urgent search to locate her and when they arrived at her residence, they were met by the couple’s remains with a gun located near her husband.

The incident took place near the Poznan City of Poland on Sunday. Investigations regarding the matter are currently taking place as cops did confirm that her partner’s injuries were due to fatal self-inflicted gunshot wounds.

Her husband was known as a notorious gangster who was arrested on various drug charges at the start of this year after cops found a stash of illegal substances at his home. However, he was released from custody last month.
