Hartridges last post before her death challenged conventional notions that women should be feminine and shouldnt look strong. I have never adhered to societal norms and I am certainly not going to start now, she wrote alongside a photo of herself flexing at the gym. Now can someone please pass me a dumbbell? And make it a heavy one.
London Metropolitan Police said in a press release that a woman in her 30s was involved in a fatal crash between a truck and electric scooter. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Police are currently looking for witnesses or anyone who has footage of the accident.
Emily became famous on YouTube, where she had more than 300,000 subscribers, according to CNN . She went on to host TV shows such as 4ODs Oh Sh*t Im 30, but she was best known for her weekly 10 Reasons Why videos, which tried to prove that everything in the world could be explained with 10 reasons.
