Pregnant Gold Medalist Tori Bowie Died While Giving Birth in Bed
Pregnant track & field star Tori Bowie died while in labor in bed at home, TMZ reports.
The Olympic gold medalist was found dead in her Orlando, Florida home on April 23. She was only 32.
Tori was “heavily pregnant”, according to neighbors and friends.
A coroner’s report, obtained by TMZ, confirmed that Tori was 8 months pregnant and “undergoing labor” when she died tragically.
Neighbors told DailyMail.com Tori was underweight for a pregnant woman.
“She was a thin woman and it looked like she had half a basketball under her shirt,” said one neighbor.
Neighbors said Tori’s behavior was erratic in the months leading up to her death, according to DailyMail.com.
One neighbor recalled encountering Tori in the street wielding a knife and screaming at her boyfriend.
“I came out of my house one time, and she was standing there in the street clutching a knife and shouting at a man,” said next-door neighbor Zehra Ugurlu.
In another strange incident, Tori threw eggs at the house opposite hers.
“We’ve heard shouting and screaming, loud music in the middle of the night. But what shocked me was that she appeared to have gotten much better lately,” said another neighbor and friend.
Tori’s friends on social media hinted that she had a history of mental health problems.
In a Facebook post, Tori’s sister wrote:
“People who pretend to be happy have some of the saddest souls and people who do not try to convince the world that they are happy have the most genuine souls, because they are content with just being them for them and nobody else.”
Tori was raised by her grandmother in Sand Hill, Mississippi, with a population of less than 100 residents at the time.
The track star was laid to rest in Brandon, Mississippi on May 13.
RIP Tori
