Sarah Becker Obituary, Death: MTV’s Real World Star Dies by Suicide at 52
Sarah Becker, a reality television star who appeared on MTV’s “The Real World,” has died by suicide, according to her family. She was 52 years old. Becker appeared in the fifth season of the reality series, which was set in Miami. She died earlier this week at her home in Illinois.
Becker’s family confirmed the tragic news to TMZ, saying she died at her home in Illinois, where she had moved to care for her ailing mother and sister. Becker had plans to move back to California when her family duties allowed. Unfortunately, she struggled with mental health in recent months, including taking care of her ailing mother and sister. A recent skateboarding accident also compounded her troubles.
Sarah gained national attention while starring in the fifth season of “The Real World” in Miami in 1996. At the time, she was a 25-year-old comic bookstore worker from La Jolla, California.

Flora Alekseyeun, one of her former roommates, posted a tribute to Becker on her Instagram, calling her former roommate “the most selfless person I knew.” She added, “She was always kind and helpful to everyone. I haven’t spoken to her in years and never knew she was troubled. My prayers go out to her family. RIP, my roommate, my friend. May you skate with angels and never feel pain again.”
Becker is credited as the editor on dozens of comic series WildStorm put out in the 1990s. Her friends remember her as a selfless person who took care of everyone else but never seemed to take care of herself. Daniel Norton, a friend, shared a heartfelt tribute on Facebook, saying, “Sarah Becker was made of pure sunshine… Full of energy and positivity, you couldn’t help but feel her warmth standing in her presence. I am grateful for our adventures and laughs. Big hugs to all the Wildstorm fam!” He further added, “I think Sarah was always one of those people, that after you’ve met them, you have a fond memory or a funny story with them in it. Something you can always look back on and share with who you’re with. That was her power.”
