After the passing of Mickey Lee, a “Big Brother” 27 clip has resurfaced that shows Lee discussing a palm reading she received from fellow houseguest Ava Pearl.
In the clip, Mickey says, “She was like, ‘This is the lifeline. Oh, it’s kinda short.” Then Ashley Hollis added, “[Pearl] freaked out, Mickey’s like, ‘Does that mean I’m going to die early?’ She’s like, ‘Um, you know… let me do Ashley’s.’”
Mickey then added, “But then she also said that she was confused about the lines.”
Fans React to Mickey Lee Palm Reading Video
While the houseguests are joking in the video and having fun during an HOH sleepover, fans were quick to jump on social media to share how eerie the clip is following Lee’s unexpected death.
One fan wrote, “This is wild in hindsight. Rest in Power, Mickey. 💔 Gone too soon,” while another added, “I think Ava was being nice. Saying she didn’t know the life line. Avas demeanor changed A LOT during those weeks. Idkkkkk.”
A third user wrote, “this is so devastating 🙁,” while a fourth one added, “Oh my gosh 😱.”
Another fan happened to show concern for Ava’s well-being after the news of Lee’s passing, saying, “Does anyone know how Ava is doing btw? Is she okay?”
According to Parade, Pearl did speak on her Instagram Story following Lee’s death. Pearl said, “Was hoping for different news regarding Mickey, a genuine tragedy for anyone to pass as young as she did.”
Pearl went on to say, “Wishing her friends and family peace, respect, and privacy during this time. No matter what, we lost a member of the ‘Big Brother’ family, and she will be missed.”
After her passing, Mickey’s family started a GoFundMe page to help support them with medical expenses. It’s close to raising the $45K goal.
On that page, the family explains that she recently suffered a sudden and devastating medical emergency. She experienced a series of cardiac arrests due to complications from the flu and has since transitioned, surrounded by loved ones.
