Chattanooga native and reality television star Ashley Ross, known as "Ms. Minnie" on Lifetime's "Little Women: Atlanta," died Monday from injuries sustained in a car accident, her representative confirmed Tuesday.
Ross died of her injuries Monday at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, her publicist Liz Dixson said in an email to The Association Press. She was 34 years old.
The wreck happened late Sunday night on a road south of Atlanta, Dixson said. City of South Fulton police did not immediately respond to requests for comment Tuesday.
Ross is survived by her mother, grandmother, aunt, uncle and other family members, according to Dixson.
"The family respectfully asks for their privacy as they grieve during this very difficult time," Dixon said.
