Holly Hagan has issued a heartfelt caution to festival attendees following the death of her younger sister, Darci, who died from an accidental drug overdose last year. Darci, aged 19, suffered two cardiac arrests after taking MDMA while attending an event in Manchester.
The reality television personality, who is 34 years old, took to Instagram ahead of the Reading and Leeds Festival this weekend to urge festival-goers to prioritize their safety. In her message, Hagan emphasized the importance of avoiding unnecessary risks and expressed her hope that everyone attending the festivals returns home safely.
The warning comes amid ongoing concerns about drug use and safety at major music festivals, where instances of drug-related emergencies have prompted calls for greater awareness and precaution. Hagan’s personal experience underscores the potential dangers associated with recreational drug use in such environments.
Festival organizers and local authorities have repeatedly advised attendees to remain vigilant, stay hydrated, and seek medical help immediately if unwell. Hagan’s public statement adds a personal perspective to these safety messages, highlighting the real-life consequences that substance misuse can have on individuals and their families.
