Victoria Lee, sister of Angela & Christian Lee has died at 18.
ONE Championship champion Angela Lee has announced that her 18-year-old sister and fellow ONE Championship fighter, Victoria Lee has died.
“On December 26, 2022, our family experienced something no family should ever have to go through,” Angela wrote on Instagram on Jan. 7, “It is incredibly difficult to say this…
Our Victoria passed away. She has gone too soon and our family has been completely devastated since then. We miss her. More than anything in this world. Our family will never be the same. Life will never be the same.”
Victoria was a budding professional fighter, having been raised alongside her famous brother and sister, both champions for the ONE Championship promotion.
Victoria was booked to compete in her fourth professional fight, opposite Zeba Bano, at ONE on Prime Video 6 on January 14 in Bangkok.
Angela Lee says her sister was ‘the most beautiful soul who ever lived’
“Victoria was the most beautiful soul who ever lived. She was the best little sister in the world. The best daughter, the best granddaughter and the best godma / aunty to Ava and Alia,” Angela wrote. “We miss you so much sis. More than you could ever realize. We’re all broken. Because a piece of you was in each of us and when you left, those pieces were ripped out of us.
We will never be the same. Each and every little thing makes me think of you. From the sun rays, to the sunset. You taught us to see the beauty in the simple things. You were our bright light. Our sunshine. And that will never change. You were perfect in every way. The best person I knew. The most beautiful girl, inside and out. We love you Victoria. I love you Sprout. Until the end of time.”
Victoria won all three of her professional bouts, all by finish. Two of her wins came by submission and one by TKO. The Lee family asks for privacy as they grieve.
“Please give our family grace and respect during this most difficult time. And please, check on your loved ones. Keep checking on them. Give them hugs and tell them how much they mean to you. You just never know,” Angela wrote.
