"Heartbroken to hear about the tragic passing of 2-time Fitness Pro winner and Olympian Alix Small. The heartbreaking news was shared earlier today by her best friend and mother. My deepest condolences go out to her family, friends, and everyone who knew her. Rest in peace, Alix"
From a friend...
"From what I deduced, the poor young lady suffered from anorexia and bulimia since 15. A friend introduced her to bodybuilding which she succeeded at until that friend who introduced her to bodybuilding passed away a few years ago. Her grief as well a a lack of an accountability partner may have played a role in her eating disorders taking hold of her again. She had long stopped competing and was trying to regain health. Please, be kind. RIP, sweetheart."
