Four years ago, Rite had been diagnosed with skin cancer.
Following the diagnosis, she began to use social media to spread awareness and document her condition.
In her final Instagram post on April 5, Rite said: “Busy week, I was going to be treated on Tuesday but was finally admitted to hospital and treated on Friday.
“Since then, bad vomiting with an achy body until yesterday.
“I couldn’t move from the bathroom and I felt terrible.
“Today, I feel a little stronger. Since yesterday, I haven’t vomited and I’ve started eating, which I hadn’t done since Friday, and I’m starting to improve.
“Let’s go little by little.”

At the time Rite had just been diagnosed with skin cancer, she reportedly said that the diagnosis came about due to a strange mole.
According to NHS Inform, skin cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in the world.
It is usually caused by ultraviolet light, which comes from the sun and sunbeds.
There are certain things that can increase your chances of developing the condition, including having pale skin, having a large number of freckles or moles and having a family history of the condition.
It affects slightly more men than women.
