Actress Holly Robinson Peete spoke to Mom•Logic about the sudden loss of her friend, Donda West, who died last week following a cosmetic surgical procedure.
Peete first met West, who managed her son Kanye’s career, at a record industry function two years ago.
“Donda was one of those women that walked in a room and just lit it up … just a mega-kilowatt smile,” Peete said. “Immediately I was drawn to her as someone who was just so magnetically special—I just had an instant connection with her.”
“I’m going to miss her,” she added. “I’m going to miss her smile. I’m going to miss her integrity … and I’m going to miss seeing her and Kanye together.”

My heart goes out to the West family, espically Kanye. I can’t imagine the pain he is going through at this moment, he lost not only his mother but his bestfriend, and his biggest fan. She was there during the moments where only a parent can understand and be the support you need in life. It was a shock to me when I heard of her death, my prayers go out to the West family, that God can will help them get through this trying time.
