Sahara Ray’s family confirmed her death
“She passed away last night surrounded by family at the hospital. She was so loved,” Sahara‘s family told TMZ in a statement.
Her cause of death was not confirmed at this time.
She did previously open up about her diagnosis with Guillain-Barre syndrome in 2024.
“So basically, right now I’m paralysed from the tops of my upper thighs all the way down to my feet. I can’t walk at all….I am primarily in a wheelchair and I have a walker,” she shared on social media. “So I have an autoimmune disease that showed up a few weeks ago called Guillain-Barre syndrome.”
The autoimmune disease is a “condition in which the body’s immune system attacks the nerves. It can cause weakness, numbness or paralysis,” the Mayo Clinic reports.
Sahara Ray Made Headlines in 2016 for Skinny Dipping with Justin Bieber
A decade ago, Justin was spotted skinny dipping in Hawaii alongside Sahara.
Sahara was also previously romantically linked to Cody Simpson, one of Justin‘s old tourmates, in 2015.
If you don’t know, she born in Australia and was a fashion designer, as well as a model. She took classes at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising and went on to create Sahara Ray Swimwear.
Based on her social media, it appears as if she gave birth to a child earlier this year. She wrote, “My whole heart baby Snow,” alongside a photo.
