MTV’s Real World/Road Rules Challenge star Diem Brown, has passed away after a long bout with cancer.
The 32 year old made her MTV debut in 2006 – revealing her ovarian cancer diagnosis during filming.
According to People.com, Brown’s ovarian cancer returned in 2012. In the last few months, she revealed that tumors had spread to her stomach and colon, and then to her liver and lymph nodes.
Despite the tragic news, Brown, who founded MedGift as a way for seriously ill people to raise money and update friends and family, remained optimistic in her public statements. “My big goal in life is to prove people wrong,” she insisted in September.
“You think I’m out? Watch: I’m going to get healthy, and I’m going to have my family and my dream again.”
