ACTRESS Sophie Nyweide, known for her role in the romantic dramaMammoth, has died at the age of 24.
The movie star's death was confirmed by her family in a paid obituary.
The family didn't confirm Nyweide's cause of death, but her struggle with self-medication and other traumas was alluded to in the obituary.
“Sophie was a kind and trusting girl. Often this left her open to being taken advantage of by others,” the family wrote.
