'Thank you for all the prayers and support throughout her battle , At this time , the family would like to have time to process, grief and make arrangements in peace. we will give an update as soon as we have information to share.'

Lizzy grew up in North Carolina in the world of racing, owing to her father's profession as a driver and engine builder.

She ultimately entered the profession herself, becoming the first woman ever to break the 200 mph barrier in eighth-mile doorslammer racing

She went public with her diagnosis shortly after she received the news in April 2023, announcing that an 'unexpected life change' had just occurred.

'A few days ago I have been Diagnosed with Triple Negative Stage 4 Breast Cancer that has moved to my lymph nodes to my liver,' she wrote on Instagram.

She divulged that she first felt the lump either in December 2022 or January 2023, in a video posted to her YouTube page.

Initially, she dismissed the growth as 'scar tissue' because she had recently undergone two revisions to a breast augmentation that 'didn't work out.'

However her lump continued to grow, alarming her enough that she decided to pursue further testing, resulting in the eventual discovery that she had cancer.

Lizzy made the announcement alongside her then-fiancé, fellow Street Outlaws personality Kye Kelley, whom she split from later that year.

In her last months, she was known to be dating pro racing driver Jeffrey Earnhardt, the grandfather of Dale Earnhardt, a legend in the profession.
