Us Weekly confirmed on Thursday that the Survivor alum died. According to TMZ, she was transported to a hospital from her home in Suffolk County, New York. She died at the facility in the early hours of the morning. Her cause of death is not currently known, though the website reported that officials deemed it “non-criminal.”

Ashley participated in the WWE’s Raw Diva Search in 2005 and ultimately won the competition. “We are saddened to learn of the tragic death of former WWE Superstar Ashley Massaro,” the WWE said in a statement on its website. “She performed in WWE from 2005-2008 and was beloved by her fellow Superstars and fans around the world.
