Conservative YouTube star Lynette Hardaway — the “Diamond” of “Diamond and Silk” fame — did not die of COVID-19 as numerous liberals on social media had (sometimes gleefully) speculated.
Ms. Hardaway, 51, died of heart disease due to chronic high blood pressure, the Associated Press reported Monday, citing her death certificate.
“COVID-19 was not listed as a cause or contributing factor on her death certificate, which was provided to the AP by the Hoke County Register of Deeds and was signed by a local doctor. No autopsy was performed,” the Associated Press wrote.
The family had not released the cause of death.
