Khadiyah Lewis passed away at 44, leaving behind a legacy that spanned from reality TV to real estate, according to her family.
The former Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta cast member’s death was confirmed by her brother, Elijah Inegbedion, in a heartfelt Facebook post.
“Been at a loss for words for some days now. And to think that I’ll ever have the words to describe the person you’ve been and the legacy that you left behind would be erroneous,” he wrote. “Long live my sister Khadiyah Lewis.”
He continued, “You left behind a legacy most individuals can only dream of. Thank you for loving me the way you did and always having my back no matter what. God blessed me when he made me your baby brother, and for that, I am eternally thankful. You are forever on my mind and in my heart. I love you!”
Lewis, who joined Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta in Season 3 and returned in a recurring role in Season 4, was known for her on-screen relationship with Yung Joc, the rapper behind the 2006 hit “It’s Goin’ Down.”
Their romance and business dealings became a storyline on the VH1 series. Joc later married fellow cast member Kendra Robinson in 2021.
Off camera, Lewis built a career as a businesswoman. On her social media accounts, she described herself as an “entrepreneur, speaker, consultant, accountant and brand ambassador.”
She ran multiple ventures, including a real estate investment company, and worked as a tax consultant. Her obituary confirmed she died on Thursday (June 5). No cause of death has been made public.
