Playboy Model Ariane Bellamar Has Died
Playboy model Ariane Bellamar has tragically died aged 46.
Bellamar, born in Florida and raised outside of Toronto, acted in numerous projects alongside her modeling work.
Most notably, she starred in Minding the Store, Raven, The Hangover Part III, and S**cide Squad.
She also starred in a handful of reality TV shows, including Hotel Hell and Beverly Hill Nannies.
After hearing the devastating news of Bellamar’s passing, fans have taken to social media to pay tribute.
One fan writes: “May she rest in peace.”
Another adds: “Very sad to hear.”
“My condolences and prayers go out to her family and friends,” somebody else comments.
A fourth person pens: “That’s terrible. Rest in peace.”
Bellamar’s passing was confirmed by her ex-husband and the father of her two daughters, Tanner Slaught.
He shared that she died on December 20, 2024, in a message shared on Facebook, alongside a link to a GoFundMe page that aims to cover funeral expenses.
Any donations above what is required to cover the funeral costs will go to charities in Bellamar’s memory instead.
In the Facebook statement, Slaught penned: “Her extremely early departure from this world has caught everyone off guard and we were not prepared for this.”
In the fundraiser description, he added: “While this unbelievable news is shocking because she was only 46, I can assure you that I have verified this truth.”
TMZ broke the tragic news of Bellamar’s death.
Nevada’s Clark County Office of the Coroner/Medical Examiner told the news website they received a report of the Playboy model’s death on December 20.
According to the GoFundMe set up by her ex-husband, Bellamar’s cause of death was a heart attack.
Back in October 2017, the Playboy model made headline news when she accused Entourage actor Jeremy Piven of s**ual assault.
Bellamar took to X (formerly Twitter) and said at the time: “Hey @jeremypiven! ‘Member when you cornered me in your trailer on the Entourage set? ‘Member grabbing my b**bies on the [couch emoji] without asking??”
In another post, she added: “Member when I tried to leave; you grabbed me by the ass, looked at yourself in the mirror, & said what a ‘beautiful couple’ we made? #MeToo.”
Bellamar also alleged Piven ‘cornered me & forcefully fondled my breasts & bum. Once at the [Playboy] mansion & once on set.’
Piven has denied Bellamar’s accusations.
In a statement to Us Weekly at the time, he said: “It did not happen. It takes a great deal of courage for victims to come forward with their histories, and my hope is that the allegations about me that didn’t happen, do not detract from stories that should be heard.”
