diagnosed with a blood clot on the brain and underwent brain surgery.

Kurt Cochran (54), Leslie Rhodes (75), and Aysha Frade (44) also died after being struck on the bridge.

Pc Keith Palmer (48), died from a single stab wound to the chest outside the Houses of Parliament before Masood was shot dead by armed police.

A statement from Barts Health NHS Trust said: “We are greatly saddened by the death of Andreea Cristea at St Bartholome­w’s Hospital, where we have cared for her following the Westminste­r terror attack. The thoughts of all our staff are with her family and friends at this difficult time.”

Ms Cristea was transferre­d from the Royal London Hospital last month for specialist care at Barts.

Meanwhile, the family of one of the victims of the Westminste­r attack have described the killer as a “sick individual” as they spoke of their pain following the deadly rampage.

Leslie Rhodes, a 75-year-old retired window cleaner living in south London, was one of the four people who died in the car-ramming and stabbing attack in the capital last month.

Mr Rhodes, who had been coming from a hospital appointmen­t at the time, was described as “lovely”, by his niece Amanda Rhodes.

She told Sky News his killer Khalid Masood was a “sick individual man”.

She added: “I’m hurting, really hurting, through one individual that decided to get in a car and mow people down. Disgusting.”

A multi-faith Service of Hope is to be held at Westminste­r Abbey on Wednesday, two weeks after the attack.
