The Big Brother community is mourning a shocking loss. Season 27 alum Mickey Lee passed away on Christmas Day following her hospitalization for multiple cardiac arrests. Mickey was in critical condition in the hospital following the “sudden health crisis.”
A GoFundMe was created to help with Mickey’s medical bills and her road to recovery. “Mickey recently suffered a series of cardiac arrests and is now in the ICU in critical but stable condition. She has been surrounded by medical professionals and loved ones, but the road ahead will be long and challenging,” the organizer of the fundraiser wrote.

Mickey’s family added, “She will be remembered for the joy she brought into the lives of so many and for the genuine connections she formed on and offscreen.” The Season 27 BB player’s family also shared their “deepest gratitude to everyone who has offered prayers, love and support.” Mickey’s loved ones also asked for privacy as they grieve Mickey’s “tremendous loss.” Finally, the statement concluded with the words, “Mickey’s light, legacy and impact will never be forgotten.”
Fellow Big Brother stars offered their condolences in the comments. “Sorry for your loss and my prayers for your family RIP MICKEY you are missed – love to all of you,” Rachel Reilly wrote. Plus, her BB co-star, Jimmy Heagerty, posted, “Mickey, my heart is absolutely broken. In the house you were my friend, my first #1, and my ride or die. Outside of the house we reaffirmed our friendship, and that meant more to me than you’ll ever know.” As you may recall, Mickey was a front-runner on Season 27, ultimately being voted out during Week 8 of the game show.
