The Challenge and Real World alum Anika Rashaun has died at just 35 years old.
On Oct. 1, Anika passed away just over a year after she was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.
According to Page Six, Anika’s friend Tiara Ramos shared a touching tribute earlier this month, remembering the MTV star as someone who was “always so unapologetically herself.”
“The way she showed up for her friends, fiercely loyal and loving to the end, was on a whole different level.”
Anika’s friend also reflected on her fearlessness, noting that she “appeared on reality TV not once but twice, went skydiving on a first date with a random guy and started creating her own businesses from the time she was a little girl.”
“Anika was beautiful, inside and out. She was kind. She loved without limits,” the tribute continued.
“She loved life. She lived life. She experienced things others could only dream of.”
ICYMI: Anika appeared on Real World Seattle: Bad Blood in 2016.
The following year, she joined The Challenge: Invasion of the Champions, where she was eliminated in the third episode.
