I didn't even know who she was until the pics Tully posted last week.

Really?! I'm not into the gossipy side of women's fashion, celebs etc.. but I've known who she was for over a decade.

I've known of her since the mid to late 90s when she was romantically involved with Scott Miller (the swimmer), the subsequent drug problems, infidelity issues and what not. It came on the news at the time, it wasn't like I was actively searching for it. lol :p

I think she was also a regular panel member of the late Stan Zemanek hosted Beauty and the Beast talk show in the early to mid 00s.

RIP Charlotte.

Given my penchant for Big Brother I suppose it would seem normal that I'd know about other celebrities and pulp TV. But I loathe it almost as much as all the shit magazines that crank out stories. So Charlotte Dawson wasn't on my radar. I hope this doesn't make me a bad person ;)
 
Oh NO... Tragic news... I only just posted about this woman last night...

I just don't understand why Tully doesn't have one public/business SM identity where she can #goodsandservices and then a separate private account where she can be herself and lose the trolls/haters/strangers who haunt her every move. Surely she understands the benefits of such a move, especially with her friend (the one she was pictured with recently) who has had such a horrid time of it with Twitter wars and all that crap.

I didn't really know who she was either until she appeared in pics with Tully...at the Valentine's Day lunch?
 
I wasn't suggesting anything untoward. I'm just surprised is all as I incorrectly presumed 99% of women in Australia would recognize who she was given how prevalent Charlotte has been in women oriented programs/media/etc..

I don't have Foxtel but I've glanced at articles in the papers about her hosting reality fashion shows on cable tv. I think I've also seen her hosting the fashion segment of the Brownlow, 'critiquing' the outfits of player's wags etc...

I didn't think anything you said was untoward ;) The shows she hosted are aimed at 'a certain type of woman'. Obviously, that's not me. And I abhor pay TV which also explains I suspect why I didn't know who she was.
 
Jesus that's really sad news about Charlotte. I remember 2 years ago when she attempted suicide some of the things the trolls had said to her even shocked me and I'd thought I'd heard it all before then. I hope some of those people who took such joy in her last suicide attempt and directly let her know about it are feeling rather shook up today. For whatever reason women cop the trolls worse than men and it's usually fellow women who are doing the trolling which is even worse. Bloody hell this is sad.

This is the bit that really gets me. And I think the fact that it's women not girls, simply makes it worse again.

I am absolutely devastated by the loss of the beautiful @MsCharlotteD. She such a support & inspiration. No words.

So sad to hear about @MsCharlotteD. Hopefully people will start to realise the impact their nasty online comments can have. RIP Charlotte.

Absolutely shocked & devastated to hear of the death of @MsCharlotteD. My thoughts are with her family & friends during this time. Xoxo
 
At least one close friend contacted soon after Dawson was found dead yesterday admitted the troubled TV host and former model was in ‘the worst shape emotionally’ they had ever seen her and on more than one occasion had failed to meet friends at organised times in the three days leading up to her death.

It’s understood it was Dawson’s failure to appear at a lunch on Saturday – as well as the fact her Twitter account had remained dormant for 19 hours - that alerted one friend to contact the building manager at Dawson’s apartment building early Sunday morning.

A security guard then made the discovery in Dawson’s unit, number 104, and raised the alarm, with police arriving soon after to remove the body.

It’s believed Dawson had hung herself.

“She was in very bad shape. Terrible shape,” said one, who asked not to be named.

“She had failed to shop up to a lunch a couple of days ago and then when I had seen she hadn’t tweeted in almost a day it was clear something was wrong.”
