PER CURIAM.
AFFIRMED. See De La Rosa v. Fla. Peninsula Ins. Co. , 246 So 3d 438, 442 (Fla. 4th DCA 2018) (affirming summary judgment entered in favor of insurer where insured untimely notified insurer of loss prejudicing the insurer in its ability to evaluate claim); Keel v. Indep. Life & Accident Ins. Co. , 99 So. 2d 225, 227 (Fla. 1957) ("[W]hen an insurer denies liability during the period prescribed for the presentation of proof of loss on grounds not relating to the proof of loss, such denial will ordinarily be considered as a waiver of the provisions of the policy requiring the filing of a proof of loss.") (emphasis added).
