Bode Miller: US Olympic Skier's Daughter Drowns by xxolisexx(m): 1:41pm On Jun 12, 2018 |
The 19-month-old daughter of former US
Olympic skier Bode Miller has died after falling
into a swimming pool.
Emmy Miller was found unconscious at a
neighbour's home in Orange County, southern
California, and doctors were unable to revive her.
In a statement posted on Instagram, Mr Miller
said he and his family were "beyond
devastated".
Mr Miller is the most successful skier in US
history, with six Olympic medals including gold at
the 2010 Games.
The 40-year-old and his wife Morgan, a
professional beach volleyball player, were at a
party on Saturday night when the incident
happened.
Their daughter somehow got away and was
found in the pool by Mrs Miller, who jumped in
and tried to resuscitate her, local authorities
told ABC .
Paramedics took the baby girl to hospital but
could not save her.
"Never in a million years did we think we would
experience a pain like this. Her love, her light,
her spirit will never be forgotten," Mr Miller
wrote.
The pair have a son and are expecting a third
child.
The skiing world has been expressing its
sympathy.
