Reality star Daisy Lewellyn dies of rare cancer at aged 36

American style expert and reality TV personality, Daisy Lewellyn has lost her battle to cancer.

The 36-year-old Blood, Sweat and Heels star passed away after fighting a rare liver cancer.

Lewellyn revealed she was diagnosed with cancer in February 2015. During an interview with website Madame Noir she said, ‘It was kind of shocking,’ she explained. ‘But also when I was diagnosed, I remember some of my immediate thoughts being like, ‘Well you know what? I’m not afraid to die.’

She continued, ‘It wasn’t like I wanted to die, and it wasn’t like I didn’t want to live because I absolutely love my life and I’ve always loved my life, but they told me it was stage three cancer. I was like, ‘Well, if it’s my time to go, I’m okay with it.’‘

Before working for Bravo, she was an author and an editor for magazines like Glamour, InStyle and Essence.

Daisy had such wonderful infectious energy. We were all rooting for her. Another good one is gone.

I literally dreamed of her last nite… perhaps it was as she was saying goodbye to all of us. The shock is wearing off and full blown grief is setting in. I cannot believe Daisy is gone. My heart breaks for her family. Her light and spirit will be sorely missed. ❤

Daisy never let anything beat down her spirit, not even a cancer diagnosis and mounting medical bills. She had an inner strength that was enviable and undeniable; if she was suffering, she did it silently. Daisy just celebrated 36 years young; I have to say, I am a better person to have been able to witness how Daisy lived and LOVED life. Please, tell your loved ones how you feel about them… You aren’t promised the chance to do it when you ‘get around to it’. ❤❤❤
