Ashlee Jenae: Partner of US Influencer Who Died in Zanzibar Speaking to Police as Witness
Yolanda Endres says the family was told by hotel staff and not Joe McCann, and they are still seeking answers after the death was classified as suicide.
- On Tuesday, Yolanda Endres, mother of 31-year-old influencer Ashly Robinson , questioned the timeline of her daughter's death during a CBS News interview in Zanzibar.
- Tanzanian police reported the incident occurred April 9 at Zuri Zanzibar following an argument between Robinson and fiancé Joe McCann; hotel staff separated the couple into different rooms.
- Endres highlighted a communication gap, stating McCann contacted the family 11 hours after the incident while they learned of her death from hotel staff, not directly from him.
- Authorities currently classify the case as a suicide based on preliminary evidence, though the family stated they did not challenge the official findings while seeking clarity on key moments.
- Robinson's body remains in Tanzania pending further examination before returning to the United States, as the family coordinates with local authorities on next steps.
