Mickey Lee‘s co-stars have flooded social media to pay tribute to her … with “Big Brother” host Julie Chen Moonves also revealing she had a known history of heart issues.
The TV personality posted about Lee after her family announced her passing Friday … writing she interviewed Lee several months ago on her podcast “God 101” — during which Mickey told her she was “born with a hole in her heart.”
As you know … Mickey passed away on Christmas Day, a few days after she was rushed to the hospital due to multiple cardiac arrests. It’s unclear if her heart issue as a child in any way contributed to her passing.
Moonves also writes that Lee told her she survived an ATV accident, which should’ve taken her life. She attributed Lee’s survival to God … though said he finally “brought her home” on Christmas.
