A 33-year-old British woman and her fiance were discovered dead in a villa in Vietnam.
Greta Marie Otteson and her fiance, Arno Els Quinton, a South African native, were both found dead in separate rooms at a villa in Vietnam. This shocking news has left their friends and family reeling with disbelief. The couple, who had gotten engaged just a few weeks prior, had been staying at the Hoi An Silverbell villa in central Quang Nam province since July 4.

On Boxing Day, the couple's bodies were discovered by the cleaning staff. Police reported that they found empty wine bottles in the room, which will be further tested. The couple's belongings were left untouched and there were no signs of physical injuries or trauma on their bodies. Ms. Otteson was found lifeless in her bed, while Mr. Quinton's room was locked and had to be broken into by officers.

A spokesperson for the Quang Nam Provincial Police stated that there were no signs of a break-in or robbery at the scene. The Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) has confirmed that they are supporting Ms. Otteson's family and are in contact with local authorities.

Ms. Otteson had lived and worked in various cities around the world, including Dubai, Paris, Bahrain, and Los Angeles. Her LinkedIn page indicates that she had a career in fashion and marketing. She had been backpacking around Asia before settling in Vietnam. Just a week before their deaths, Mr. Quinton had shared about their exciting life in Vietnam, including their upcoming marriage, rescuing a dog from a meat market, and developing a game.

The sudden deaths of Greta and Arno have left their loved ones in shock, and tributes and messages of condolences have been pouring in from friends and family all over the world. One friend expressed disbelief and another shared that this was completely unexpected. Dayle Visser, a friend of Mr. Quinton, wrote a heartfelt message online, saying, "Rest in peace my brother. Thank you for always being the fierce friend you were. You saved me many a time. You were real and lived life harder than most people could ever dream of. I love you, and I will always miss you." The world has lost two vibrant and adventurous souls, and they will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved them.
