A DISNEY superfan shared a heartbreaking photo holding a baby scan with her husband just months before she was tragically found dead in Disney World.
Summer Equitz, 31, had posted the ultrasound snap in December 2024, proudly announcing her pregnancy and what should have been the start of a dream new chapter.
The snap showed a joyful Summer alongside her husband in what appears to be their home kitchen, holding the baby scan to the camera.
The happy announcement came just weeks after the couple had their honeymoon at Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida.
But on Tuesday night, it was at the same resort police said the mum-to-be was discovered dead after reportedly taking her own life.
The Orange County medical examiner said she died from multiple blunt impact injuries in what authorities called “an apparent suicide.”

Equitz had allegedly vanished from her home in Naperville, Illinois, before secretly booking a flight to Florida.
“She booked a flight there without telling us, unfortunately,” a relative claimed in a now-deleted Reddit post as they urged park-goers to alert police if they saw her.
Officers swarmed the Disney’s Contemporary Resort — one of more than 25 hotels on Disney’s sprawling property — shortly after 6pm following reports of a body.
Images shared online showed a white tent near the observation deck beside the hotel’s monorail line.
Initial speculation online suggested someone had been struck by the monorail, but officials denied it.
“[The guest] was NOT struck by the monorail, so that is erroneous information,” the Orange County Sheriff’s Office told reporters.
A life-long Disney fanatic, Equitz had worked at Disneyland in California as a character performer and entertainment host between 2012 and 2015.
She later became a nanny and social media consultant.
She often shared photos from the parks — including a snap with Disney CEO Bob Iger in 2021, which she captioned: “My life has peaked.”
The Contemporary Resort, known for its sweeping views over the Magic Kingdom, has been the site of multiple suicides over the years.
Equitz’s death comes amid a string of recent theme park tragedies.
Last week, a woman in her 60s reportedly died after suffering a medical episode on Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion ride.
And last month, 32-year-old Kevin Rodriguez Zavala died after riding the Stardust Racers roller coaster at Universal’s new Epic Universe park.
YOU’RE NOT ALONE
EVERY 90 minutes in the UK a life is lost to suicide
It doesn’t discriminate, touching the lives of people in every corner of society – from the homeless and unemployed to builders and doctors, reality stars and footballers.
It’s the biggest killer of people under the age of 35, more deadly than cancer and car crashes.
And men are three times more likely to take their own life than women.
Yet it’s rarely spoken of, a taboo that threatens to continue its deadly rampage unless we all stop and take notice, now.
That is why The Sun launched the You’re Not Alone campaign.
The aim is that by sharing practical advice, raising awareness and breaking down the barriers people face when talking about their mental health, we can all do our bit to help save lives.
Let’s all vow to ask for help when we need it, and listen out for others… You’re Not Alone.
