She walked the runway at New York’s Fall Fashion Week for designer Hally McGehean in September also recently participated in BET’s Rip the Runway and appeared in numerous photo shoots and music videos.

Sharon Watson, aunt of the young model tells ABC Philadelphia this was completely unexpected saying:

“We didn’t expect nothing like that. She took him and embraced [him], like she embraced everybody,”

This is very sad news. We send our prayers and thoughts to Vanessa and her family. R.I.P.
