In a sad turn of events, MTV Challenge star Diem Brown died today after losing a long battle with cancer.
The 32-year-old was fighting her battle in public, often tweeting about her struggle.
"I NEED PRAyErs and advice my doctors are seemingly giving up but I won't & can't rollover," she wrote on Tuesday. "Whatever option I have to LIVE I'm grabbing!… Need prayers, advice, support & outreach. No is not an option."
Over the summer, the reality star was diagnosed with cancer for a third time. She previously fought cancer in 2006 and then again in 2012. Unfortunately the diagnosis was much more serious the third time -- her ovarian cancer had spread to her colon and stomach lining.Â
The blonde beauty had just began a new round of chemotherapy. She was set to undergo her second of five treatments next Tuesday, Nov. 18. Despite her dire diagnosis, Diem remained strong.
"I'll beat cancer again … I'm a warrior," she told Us Weekly.
Diem was the founder of a charity organization, MedGift, which is a gift registry that helps medical patients receive donations.
The reality star is survived by her father, two sisters, and brother.Â
