Ban's son, Sebastian, shared a heartfelt tribute to his mother on her social media.
"My mum passed away on Monday. I know she wanted to share her journey after her accident and brain surgery, so I thought she would appreciate one last post sharing the news to people who supported her," the post, accompanied by photos of Ban, read.
"Many of you followed my mum but never got the chance to know her or meet her in person. I would like to take the chance to share who my mum really was. She was and always will be my best friend, the best mother to me, and someone who cared for all."
Ban's son's final message to his mother was, "I will miss you forever," as he concluded his post with something she always told him - "I love you more than life itself."
Upon arrival, officers observed a 52-year-old woman found "unconscious and unresponsive," inside the location.
"EMS responded and pronounced the female dead at the scene," police added.
Authorities shared that the medical examiner is currently determining the cause of death, but there were "no arrests." The investigation remains ongoing, police told Fox News Digital.
Netflix did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
Weeks leading up to her death, the reality television star shared harrowing details about how she underwent emergency brain surgery after she suffered a brain bleed from a ski accident in Aspen.
After she had a minor headache, the paramedic suggested Ban go to the hospital for a CAT scan.
"Within 30 minutes they told us I had a brain bleed and needed to be airlifted to the trauma hospital. Last thing I remember was being intubated and waking up after an emergency craniotomy," Ban wrote, as she mentioned her partner Jett Kain - who also starred on "Bling Empire: New York" - stood by her side.
She shared photos of her half-shaven head filled with stitches and her intubated in a hospital bed, with medical tubes inserted in the back of her head and in her mouth.
"Grateful and blessed to see the new year," she concluded her post.
Meanwhile, celebrities, including Rihanna and fellow "Bling Empire" star Dorothy Wang, paid tribute to the beloved reality star.
"2025 is rocking me at this point! This is too much!!! Lynn you will always be our fairy godmother! Love you forever and always! Can't believe I'm writing this in a comment section rn! Thank you for all the joy you brought to us!" Rihanna wrote on Instagram.
Wang replied to her son Sebastian in the heartfelt post.
"Sebastian, we have never met but the way your mom lit up every time she spoke of you-i will never forget. i won't forget so many wonderful things about your mother," Wang shared in the comments section.
Another "Bling Empire" star, Christine Chiu, sent her condolences as she remembered her dear friend.
Ban was born in Singapore, and was a famous New York City jewelry designer who created custom pieces for star-studded celebrities, including Rihanna and Beyoncé.
Ban is survived by her husband, Jett, and son, Sebastian.
