Daisy Lewellyn, known as the “Queen of Effortless Chic” and star of the hit Bravo show “Blood, Sweat and Heels,” has died at the age of 36.
Essence confirmed the news of her death on its website and on Twitter.
The style expert revealed that she had been diagnosed with a rare form of bile duct cancer in 2015. Lewellyn had the tumor removed, but more cancerous cells were discovered, which required chemotherapy and radiation treatment.
Taking a positive approach, Lewellyn told Bravo at the time of her diagnosis, "I have cancer – cancer doesn't have me."
Friends and fans took to social media to pay their respects.
