Olympian Tori Bowie Was ‘Looking Forward To’ Becoming A Mom Before Shocking Death

Tori Bowie’s Agent, Kimberly Holland, is opening up about how excited the Olympian was to become a mom before her shocking death. In a new interview with NBC News, the rep explained that she spoke to the 32-year-old on the phone two weeks before her passing and told the outlet her voice was full of joy about her baby. Tori reportedly giggled and said she was “looking forward to this new chapter in her life,” during the conversation. According to Kimberly, the track and field star was about eight months pregnant and was already shopping for her little one. “I thought that conversation, overall, was a conversation of new beginnings,” she said in an interview. Kimberly revealed that she was checking in on if Tori was taking care of herself during the pregnancy because she had “never been a really big eater.” “I started to come off, I think, a little preachy, because she started to shut me down and she was like, ‘Miss Kim, the baby is fine.’ So that was my cue to leave it alone,” she recalled. According to Kimberly, Tori brushed her off when asked if she was going to her prenatal appointments but added that the athlete would have been an incredible mother. “I think that that would have been one of the most luckiest [sic] babies ever, because she had so much love to give,” she gushed. The gold medalist passed away last month, and a new autopsy report obtained by NBC News this week confirmed she died of childbirth complications. Bowie was estimated to be in active labor with a “well developed fetus” when she died, according to the documents. The athlete was found dead at her Florida home on May 3 after authorities performed a requested welfare check.
