ANTOINE ASHLEY – HEART FAILURE

Antoine Ashley is a popular drag queen who participated in the second season of the reality show RuPaul’s Drag Race. During her time on the series, Ashley, who also went by the screen name Sahara Davenport, captivated the hearts of many and earned a considerable following. Behind her bright personality, Ashley was hooked on designer substances such as ketamine. Thanks to her mother’s intervention, she was able to undergo rehab, counseling, and in a few years, was doing great.

Although she got over her habit, years of misuse took a toll on her body and led to heart failure in 2012. No amount of insurance could have stopped the unfateful incident, let alone could have seen it coming. RuPaul’s Drag Race All Stars: It Takes Two (2012) was aired in honor of her service and contribution to the show. In our opinion, Ashley’s legacy endures and persists, even though she’s moved on to join the Creator.
