Andy Cohen honored Daisy on Watch What Happens: Live! with a personal message praising her positive spirit followed by a tribute video montage compiled from Blood, Sweat, and Heels. Here’s the clip followed by a transcript of Andy’s message:
Right now I just want to remember a very special member of the Bravo family. For two seasons on Blood, Sweat and Heels we were lucky enough to get to know Daisy Lewellyn, who died of a rare form of cancer on Friday at only 36 years old.
I’ve said before that Daisy lit up every room she was in. She had such wonderfully infectious energy, even as she bravely shared her struggles with all of us. Daisy’s social pages will be updated in the coming days with information on her foundation and how to donate, and remember her.
While we are all heartbroken to lose her, Daisy’s wonderful spirit and force of life is her legacy.
