Gia Allemand Suicide: Bachelor Star Was on Phone with Mother During Final Moments
During an interview with Dr. Phil McGraw, the mother of late Bachelor star Gia Allemand revealed that she was on the phone with her daughter during her final moments.
Gia allemand attempted suicide on Monday, Aug. 12, but made one last phone call to her mother.
"I'm the closest person in the world to her and she didn't want to be alone when she left this world," Micheletti revealed during the interview scheduled to air on Tuesday, Sept. 10. "So she wanted Mommy to be there, I guess."
According to Micheletti, the two were talking when the phone call went silent, prompting her to reach out to Allemand's boyfriend, NBA player Ryan Anderson.
"It destroys me, but if it made her feel better, then that's fine. I don't mind dealing with this," she said. "I'm really mad that she did this for no reason. In 12 hours it would have been fine. I'm really angry."
The 29-year-old star was admitted into hospital and put on life support after Anderson found the model in her New Orleans home, reported TMZ.
One week later, according to a statement from her family, Allemand was taken off of life support "due to a critical loss of brain and organ function."
As further proof of her faith, the model took to Twitter with a Bible excerpt from Proverbs just one day before being admitted into the hospital.
"Proverbs 21: 3 'Doing what is right and fair pleases The Lord more than an offering,'" wrote the reality television star on Sunday, Aug. 11.
On Twitter, celebrities and Allemand's fans have flooded the social media site with messages of mourning.
Among those grieving Wednesday is season 14's winner of "The Bachelor," Vienna Girardi, who took to Twitter following Allemand's death.
"Gia you are my angel," Gurardi posted to Twitter. "You changed so many lives with your beautiful soul and will be missed and loved forever."
