She is survived by her daughter Jordan Ashlee Nikole Lewis.

Though her cause of death is “still unknown”, the star was sadly found dead in her hotel room by a housekeeper – with police investigating a “potential homicide”.

Her sister Haylee Lewis explained to In Touch: “I’ve been speaking with detectives too, and they are saying they saw footage of two men with Taylor in the hotel room.”

Her body was found by a housekeeper “hours later”.

It has since been reported, however, that Taylor may have been involved in a tragic overdose, with The Hollywood Gossip reporting that “social media posts indicate that Taylor lost her battle with addiction”.

Jenelle herself penned a lengthy tribute on Facebook.

She penned: “Taylor what happened?! We were once best friends and we went our separate ways because of the diff crowds we chose to hangout with.

“I wanted to see you eventually flourish as a woman from a distance but was always rooting for you. I don’t know what happened but I am very saddened to hear this news and hope you’re resting easy.”

She added: “I’m so sorry and sending your family prayers #SweetAngel #RIP.

“I feel awful for not answering her in March 2022, but I felt like she wasn’t doing her best.”

The Teen Mom star went on to share a series of throwback photos of the pair together, before advising her fans: “If your friends message you, just respond back.

“See how they are doing. Check up on them.”

Taylor and Jenelle have a complicated history together, with Taylor being the first wife to Jenelle’s ex-hubby Courtland.

After their marriage, Jenelle and Courtland were first linked romantically in 2012 and tied the knot in December that year – before splitting just a month later.

Jenelle has been open about her own addiction struggles, admitting an addiction to heroin which “relapsed” when she met Courtland.

She said: “Me and him, we got married only after three months of dating. I’m so mad at myself for marrying someone that I didn’t think through.”
