The daughter of boxing legend George Foreman was found dead over the weekend, according to reports.
According to TMZ, “Her parents also didn’t enjoy her being in the ring ... so George reportedly paid her to quit.”
She is one of Foreman’s seven daughters, and has appeared in documentaries about him. She also lent her voice to the Fox animated series “King of the Hill.”
She is survived by her husband, two daughters, three grandchildren, her parents, and 11 brothers and sisters. All of her brothers are named George, and Freeda’s middle name was George, too.
Freeda said via her Twitter biography: “Aside from my love of family, being a good mother, wife, and friend, I aspire to make a positive difference in our American Criminal Justice System.”
Police are now awaiting a coroner’s report for her cause of death, TMZ reported.
