Her parents confirmed her death as friends said it came out of the blue.
The family did not discuss details of her passing and asked for privacy at this time.
A friend told local media that her death was down to circumstances beyond her control and that further inquiries may follow.
Olivia was the only child of art dealer Reijo Oras, 80, and Johanna Oras, 56.
Born in 1998, she rose to fame as a teenager and at her peak had about 40,000 online followers.
A documentary, The Perfect Selfie, was made about her life.
She later stepped back from the spotlight and worked in marketing, fashion, AI firms, and her mother’s design company Kallary.
Last year, she set up Oras Respiratus to back research into lung disease, as reported by Need To Know.
Four days before the news broke, she posted from a Michelin-starred restaurant in Bekkjarvik, Norway, with her partner Oskar Komulainen on his birthday.
She wrote: “An evening we will definitely never forget.”
Businessman Peter Vesterbacka said he saw her in Turku only a few days before her death.
He said: “This came as a surprise to everyone.
“She was a really nice and intelligent young woman.
“I’m still thinking, how is this possible?”
Dance school owner Anitra Ahtola wrote: “You left far too soon.
“The love between you and Osku was something quite special.”
On Saturday, her mother posted a framed photograph with a rose and a candle.
She wrote: “Olivia 1998–2026.
“Let’s remember her on the platform she loved.”
No official medical statement has yet been released.
