She was found dead Thursday at Pistorius' home in Pretoria, South Africa. Friends say she was a rising star and was set to appear on the reality TV show, 'Tropika Island of Treasure 5.' |
South African model Reeva Steenkamp was shot dead on Feb. 14, allegedly at the hands of her Olympic sprinting star boyfriend Oscar Pistorius, according to reports.
She described herself as the three B’s: “Brainy, blonde, bombshell.”
South African model Reeva Steenkamp’s tragic death stunned her family and friends Thursday, and they remembered the 29-year-old rising star as an “absolute angel on Earth.”

Early reports that Pistorius may have mistaken Steenkamp for a burglar did not come from police, authorities said.
