Tori Bowie weighed just 96 pounds while eight months pregnant when she died in childbirth

Tori Bowie weighed just 96 pounds and was eight months pregnant when she died, an autopsy has confirmed.

The sporting world was left stunned when the track and field star was found dead in her home last month. The autopsy disclosed no signs of foul play or drugs, and listed respiratory distress and eclampsia (a rare condition that causes seizures during pregnancy) as possible causes of death.

Her agent, Kimberly Holland, had said the former 100m world champion passed away in Florida in early may due to childbirth complications. In an interview with NBC News, Holland disclosed that the American had been struggling with her health before her death.
