WWE Hall of Famer Ric Flair has paid tribute to eight-year-old Scarlett Guillen, who recently passed away.
Taking to X, ‘The Nature Boy’ shared photos of himself, Scarlett, and Charlotte Flair that offered a window into how the young cancer fighter had become woven into the Nature Boy’s own life.
One of the images showed Scarlett dressed as Charlotte, mourning someone who had become part of their family. He posted the tribute on X.
I’m So Sad To Hear About The Loss Of Scarlett! She Fought A Tough Battle With Cancer, And Throughout It, Her Strength & Bravery Never Wavered. She Was A Light Of Pure Joy. The World Lost A Beautiful Soul, But Heaven Gained An Angel! She Will Live On In Our Hearts & Memory Forever. Rest In Peace Scarlett! ??,” the WWE Hall of Famer wrote.
Scarlett’s family announced that she passed away following her battle with Diffuse Midline Glioma, a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer. They remembered her as a little girl who could change the mood of an entire room just by walking into it.
A Bond That Started With A Smile
Charlotte Flair also shared her own emotional tribute to the eight-year-old.
At a time when I was feeling sorry for myself, you gave me something so much greater than I could have ever given you. You gave me perspective. You taught me courage, gratitude, joy, and how precious every single moment truly is. Those lessons will stay with me for the rest of my life,” Charlotte wrote.
Scarlett previously designed Charlotte’s entrance gear for Survivor Series: WarGames last year, and ‘The Queen’ later dedicated her WrestleMania 42 ring gear to Scarlett.
Fans Rally Behind Scarlett’s Family
As the tributes poured in, support built around Scarlett’s family. A GoFundMe recorded more than $63,000, with NBA star Tyrese Haliburton contributing $10,000 and Charlotte, using her real name Ashley Fliehr, donating $8,000 toward funeral and memorial.
