Both were models; both died of heart attacks within six months of each other. Neither was the one whose death started the weight controversy, though.
The article doesn't mention if they were underweight, and says at least one had an congenital heart defect. It does question whether drugs or eating disorders could have been involved.
I stumbled across an article the other day about a "new," underground diet drug, which absolutely works, without diet or exercise--and also absolutely damages your heart. Scary!
This article also says the other model who died was 5'6" and weighed 88 pounds. I didn't realize she was THAT thin. I don't think the fashion industry can be blamed for that--I don't know anyone who would even hire her at that size.
