According to Dee, Dannii's skull was badly injured in the incident.

"She was 28, full of life and trying her best to move on and meet someone. Now she won't get that chance."
Dannii Erskine shot to fame for her role in Bride and Prejudice
Dannii Erskine gained recognition after she participated in Bride & Prejudice in 2019. She was accompanied by Denton, who was her fiancé at the time. The duo were also planning to elope during the show.
Denton had revealed that he and Dannii were thinking about going to Bali, but they realized that the show could prove to be helpful for their relationship and the entire family.
There was also a moment in the show where Dannii and her sister had a dispute, and the producers had to step in and break up the fight.
Dannii also had some trouble with her family members when her mother Donna charged Denton with trying to take the place of Erskine's father, who passed away six months before she joined the show. Following the claims, Erskine demanded an apology from her mother and sister.
A few of Erskine's co-stars have also passed away in the last two years. Dannii's co-star James Ciseau also died from an accident in 2021, and another star of the show, Micah Downey, passed away after struggling with substance abuse in 2019.
Bride & Prejudice aired for three seasons from 2017 to 2019. It originally aired on FYI and was later moved to Lifetime.
