There isn’t much information available as to how Jamie Lopez died, but TMZ spoke with sources close to her who revealed that Jamie had “been hospitalized in Las Vegas and died over the weekend as a result of heart complications.”
As Super Sized Salon viewers are aware, Jamie has been very open about her health issues. Her weight reached a high of 846 pounds, and she was housebound for two years before managing to lose 400 pounds with the help of exercise and a keto diet.
It’s also revealed on the show that Jamie had to have physical therapy and rehab to learn how to walk again after her weight loss.
Baby Doll Beauty Couture was first opened in 2017, but it soon had to change locations because of death threats and vandalism. Jamie’s weight gain and the resulting immobilization, combined with the COVID pandemic, resulted in the salon being closed for a period of time. Super Sized Salon Season 1 documented the process of re-opening the salon, which Jamie had completely redesigned on her phone while housebound.
TMZ’s sources reveal that Jamie was just about to start filming for Super Sized Salon Season 2 when she died.
