On Wednesday a spokesperson for St George Hospital advised Ms Falkholt passed away at 10.20 am.

Last month it was confirmed Jessica's younger sister Annabelle had died in hospital three days after their parents were killed in a horrific NSW south coast collision.

Both Jessica and Annabelle were passengers in their parents' car when it collided with another car on Boxing Day, on the Princes Highway, north of the Bendalong turnoff.
