New details have emerged about hairstylist Jesus Guerrero’s medical history in the run-up to his death in February aged 34.
Guerrero, whose celebrity clientele included Kylie Jenner and Jennifer Lopez, died at a hospital in Los Angeles shortly after working with Lopez in Dubai.
His devastated sister Gris announced on February 22 that she had lost her brother ‘very suddenly and unexpectedly’ that day.
Although his family are still waiting for the autopsy results to come back, Gris has now shed light on the health issues he suffered prior to his death.
‘He was diagnosed with gastritis months back, but it was never anything to get that bad. So we don’t know if that was a part of it,’ she told Us Weekly.
Gastritis, an inflammation of the stomach lining, can be the result of severe stress, medications, alcohol, diet, smoking, or certain other illnesses, or even the knock-on effects of burns or major operations, among many potential factors.

Symptoms can include nausea and vomiting, pain or a burning feeling in the stomach, abdominal bleeding or appetite loss, according to Johns Hopkins.
Gris shared that it ‘seems to be the case’ that her brother lost 20lbs leading up to his death, based on the ‘paperwork’ she has been able to read.
‘We think it could have been something with his stomach,’ she said, noting that his family knew ‘that he couldn’t eat without it being painful’ in his final days.
