Alekseyeun responded to the death on Instagram. “I am beyond myself and sad to just hear that my roomate Sarah died. I can’t believe this,” she wrote. “She was the most selfless person I knew. She was always kind and helpful to everyone. I haven’t spoken to her in years and never knew she was troubled.”
This season of the show was the first time the cast was asked to complete an assignment, which in this case was creating a startup business with the help of $50,000. They were unable to complete the task. During her time on the show, Sarah got a puppy named Leroy and had a feud with Melissa Padrón, which caused Padrón to move out of the house.
