A young reality TV star was just found dead on a beach in Nazaré, Portugal. This star went missing on New Year’s Eve. Then, roughly one week later, authorities found his car, submerged in the nearby sea. Portuguese police are currently investigating his case, so the cause of his death is pending. But as of now, nothing is off the table, including foul play.
DJ Maycon Douglas’ body washed up on a beach in Portugal
Reality star slash DJ, Maycon Douglas, a.k.a. Juicy Rasta, starred in Season 8 of the hit Portuguese reality show Secret Story – Casa dos Segredos. After filming, Maycon returned to his DJ’ing gig, with his latest set falling on New Year’s Eve. Here, he DJ’ed at a local Nazaré area bar before heading home, according to CNN Portugal. But, sadly, home is somewhere that he never arrived.
On January 1, the search for Maycon’s whereabouts started. Shortly after, local authorities found his car, wrecked and submerged near a lighthouse. However, when divers investigated his car, Maycon’s body was not inside. Instead, all they found was his jacket.
Then, one week later, on January 7, Portuguese officials made a tragic discovery. Around 1:50 p.m. local time, they found his body. It was near the location of his submerged car. The circumstances surrounding Maycon’s death, including the cause, have not yet been revealed.
His loved ones, including Raquel Coelho, his co-star-turned-girlfriend, said their goodbyes to Maycon yesterday at his funeral service. As Raquel penned on Instagram, “I’d give anything to have you back.” But now that he is gone, Maycon will “be forever with me and in me, I take you everywhere, unfortunately not in the way I idealized, but in the way life wanted,” she emotionally shared.
