Influencer Nurse Hailey Dies During C-Section, Baby Survives
Hailey Okula, widely known as Nurse Hailey on social media, has tragically passed away due to complications during childbirth.
Her husband, Matt Okula, shared the heartbreaking news in an emotional social media post, revealing that Hailey suffered an amniotic embolism—a rare and severe condition where amniotic fluid enters the bloodstream, leading to multiple organ failure.

Despite the devastating loss, their newborn son, Crew, survived the C-section and is reported to be healthy. Matt expressed his deep sorrow, saying Hailey would have been an incredible mother, as she had long dreamed of parenthood and endured years of IVF treatments to conceive.
Beyond being a devoted wife and soon-to-be mother, Hailey was a passionate advocate for aspiring nurses. Through her platform, she provided invaluable guidance on nursing exams, interviews, and emergency room essentials. She also founded RN New Graduates, a business dedicated to supporting new nurses entering the field.
Matt described Hailey as not only his ultimate life partner but also an extraordinary entrepreneur who poured her heart into everything she did.
In light of her passing, he announced that all business operations for RN New Graduates would be paused indefinitely.
As Matt grieves, he promises to keep Hailey’s memory alive by sharing her stories with their son, ensuring that Crew grows up knowing the remarkable woman his mother was.
