On Thursday, Brown was attending an event hosted by BoxLunch, a pop-culture-themed retail company, when she unknowingly consumed something that triggered an allergic reaction, according to social media users. However, an official statement on the manner of her death has not been published.
As reported by the Guardian, one user on X, known as @hideyagrannies, who claimed to have known Brown for nearly a decade through their mother, stated that Brown had been assured there were no peanuts in the food served at the event. However, shortly after eating, she began feeling unwell. She reportedly asked to be taken to a hospital but tragically passed away shortly thereafter.
