On last night’s episode of Watch What Happens Live, Andy Cohen took the time during the show’s final minutes to share some devastating news with his audience.

Visibly emotional, Cohen stated, “This is hard for me to get through. On Tuesday night our beloved former production manager, Kyra Sampson, passed away from brain cancer. She was only 28.”

Through tears, Cohen went on to describe the positive impact she left during her time at WWHL. “During her four wonderful years with us, Kyra was known for her sweet smile and gentle demeanor. But, she could also be a small but mighty enforcer.”

To honor Kyra and her legacy, here’s some information to keep the spirit of the late production manager alive.

Who is Kyra Samson?

According to the fundraiser, Kyra was “the lively daughter, guiding sibling, relied upon friend, devoted partner, and dependable colleague.” Her loved ones say “Kyra saw the world through her own unique lens and those around her will always be better for it.”

At just 27, Kyra was diagnosed with an aggressive form of brain cancer and “pursued treatment options with unwavering determination while prioritizing what mattered most to her: time with loved ones, laughter with friends, music, consuming popular culture, and creating beautiful memories.”

Who is David Samson?

Former Miami Marlins president David Samson is the father of Kyra Samson. On June 24, he took to X to mourn his daughter. “Yesterday, my daughter, Kyra, passed away peacefully after a 9 month and 11 day fight again one of the cruelest diseases I’ve ever seen up close… Kyra was a 28-year-old young woman who loved deeply and who is impossible to describe in 280 character. While her life got stolen from her, she handled these months with courage, poise, and resolve,” he wrote.

He added, “And all I want is for no family to feel what we feel today. For no young person to suffer the way she did.”

What is Glioblastoma?

Per Mayo Clinic, glioblastoma is “an aggressive type of brain cancer that starts in cells called astrocytes, which support nerve cells.”

Even though treatment is available to slow the spread or growth of the cancer, glioblastoma has no cure.

Where can I donate to The Kyra Fund?

You can donate to The Kyra Fund which will be used to research treatment for glioblastoma.

The website for the fund tells Kyra’s story and describes her fighting spirit, “In the face of unimaginable circumstances, Kyra led with courage, bravery, grit, strength, and authenticity.”
