MStars News previously reported that Lewellyn died last Friday after battling bile duct cancer. The reality star talked openly about her illness during her time on Blood, Sweat and Heels.

During a chat with Madame Noir, Lewellyn revealed her feelings after she learned that she had cancer. "It was kind of shocking. 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 added: "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.'"

The fashion diva worked in the industry for over 15 years. She worked with major companies including, Essence, InStyle and Glamour. The California native was also an author. Her book, Never Pay Retail Again: Shop Smart, Spend Less, & Look Your Best Ever was published in 2010. She also co-founded DREAMNYC which is a program that mentors teen girls.

Lewellyn was only 36 years old. Our thoughts and prayers go out to her family and friends.
