The younger sister of ONE champions Angela and Christian Lee, Victoria died on December 26 in Hawaii

Shocking. Angela Lee's sister dies at age 18. Cause of death has not been made public. 

I remember watching her fight video about a year ago. 😢 RIP!

Achieved so much for one so young.

Her sister's words are very telling and it's a good reminder to look out for one's loved ones. 

RIP... if only.... 

Sincere condolences to the bereaved family.

Reddit claiming self inflicted.....

 

Based on this line from the sister's IG

 

 'Please give our family grace and respect during this most difficult time. And please, check on your loved ones. Keep checking on them. Give them hugs and tell them how much they mean to you. You just never know '

Read that she actually passed away on 26 December. Her sister only shared 2 weeks later on 7 January. 

Tough. Especially more so amidst the festive seasons and jolly celebrations.

Life is precious n short. Do cherish loved ones, choose to let our hearts be "bigger" and dun let grudges get in the way ya. Dead liao, dun be left with regrets and hatred. 

Reading of young n not so young ones just gone suddenly, from those lost to the recent landslide, famous celebrities, our own Mr Sim and then this young lady, it never fail to remind me that everyone must walk this path, rich and poor, healthy and unhealthy etc.

Death is not fussy. Everyone is accepted. Anytime, anywhere. 

Take care and make time to relax, be less covetous of material wealth and choose your choices wisely. 

Celebrate life and loved ones. You always have a choice.

MMA fighter Angela Lee says her 2017 car crash was a suicide attempt, confirms sister Victoria took her own life

It's like some people who are unhappy stuck in a stressful job or heading for a career that they don't like - yet invested too much time or money in it, plus other people's expectations.

They cannot simply just resign and walk away. Other people's expectations or dependence on them is too great. So must find other ways of escaping. Sadly suicide and other kinds of self harm is one of the alternative way.

Actually, it would benefit many if they could share what are the underlying challenges she is facing. With this knowledge, those facing the same problems would be better equipped to handle it.

Most times, I think the one facing it didn't know they have a problem. They just feel it is meaningless to continue. Nothing works. The minutes they are able to open up to talk, there is hope.

She did this when she was cutting weight for her upcoming fight.
looking at her physique, shes always going to find it hard to cut weight cos she was taller and broader than her opponent.

Cutting weight is brutal when it comes to combat sports. It takes few weeks to 1 month+. 
You dehydrate and starve your body to the extreme while still doing workout to maintain muscle mass. And victory/defeat is only by a few hundred grams only.

Many of them (also bodybuilders) go through very wild mood swings during the above.
If u read what they go through, even tough men who are no strangers to pain/extreme workouts suffer mental breakdowns. They don't reveal it until after they are retired usually. Like grown men cant stop crying type...
