Lewis was diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer, which she announced back in 2020 by sharing a post on her Instagram account. On Wednesday, Lewis' sister Emory penned down a long message remembering her on Facebook. She posted a black and white picture of the former MTV VJ.

"She was my stubborn little sister who shone brightly, loved fiercely and was my number one cheerleader,” Emory wrote (via NEW York Post). “Hard/headed and tender-hearted…smart as a whip…we finished each other’s sentences.”

Ananda Lewis is survived by her son Langston, whom she shared with Harry Smith, the younger brother of American actor Will Smith.
