Goldie’s Cause of Death Revealed

According to sources from Reddington hospital, where Goldie died last night, the likely cause of her sudden death is pulmonary embolism.

According to an article on the New York Times website, “Life-threatening blood clots and flying have been linked for more than 50 years, but a new study of business travelers confirms the risk, particularly for those who take long flights or fly frequently.

“Immobility is considered a major factor behind the condition, called deep vein thrombosis.

“But while it is often referred to as “economy-class syndrome” because of the cramped seating there, D.V.T. also occurs among those who fly in business class and first class, the researchers found.

“People who fly four hours or more, the study found, have three times the risk of developing clots compared with periods when they did not travel.

“D.V.T. occurs when a blood clot forms within the large deep veins of the body, usually in the leg. If untreated, part of the clot may break off and travel to the lungs, where it can cause a pulmonary embolism, a potentially fatal condition.”

A report on National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s website, noted that “pulmonary embolism is a very serious condition. It can damage the lungs and other organs in the body and cause death.

According to close friends, the singer and former Big Brother contestant, was a frequent traveller and had complained of stress in the past weeks, but insisted she was fine.

Her corpse was deposited at the LASU General Hospital this morning. So sad for everyone, Goldie was a Gem.

Meanwhile
 Prezzo’s friend, Shaffie Weru spoke to Prezzo’s mum who confirmed that her son left for Nigeria on Thursday night most probably after getting the news of Goldie’s death. Shaffie is a radio presenter with Kiss 100.


Prezzo, who met Goldie while both were housemates at the Big Brother Africa Stargame in 2012, is ‘beyond shocked’.

Meanwhile another Big Brother colleague Milicent Mugadi says it’s difficult for her to digest the news of Goldie’s death. ‘Later in the day I will organise together with a few friends to have a private mass to remember Goldie.

May she rest in peace. I still cannot digest the news’, she said.
