Caitlyn Jenner’s longtime friend and manager, Sophia Hutchins, has tragically passed away.
Hutchins died in an ATV crash in Malibu, California. She was 29.
Hutchins, who has been close friends with Jenner for almost a decade, was pronounced dead on Wednesday following a tragic ATV accident near Jenner’s Malibu home.
According to TMZ, Hutchins was riding the vehicle on the road where Jenner lives when she collided with the bumper of a moving car.
The impact was so great that it forced Hutchins over the shoulder of the road, and she plummeted 350 feet into a ravine.
Hutchins was pronounced dead on the scene. The other vehicle was carrying two passengers who were unharmed.
It’s unclear if Caitlyn Jenner was present during the fatal accident, but there were no other injuries reported.
