A twin is navigating a devastating loss.
Rebecca Wylie Simms, a food and lifestyle influencer who went by the nickname “Boo,” has died following a “tragic surgery complication,” her twin sister and business partner Sarah Simms Hendrix shared. She was 39.
“This loss is immeasurable, and our hearts are completely shattered,” Sarah wrote in her Jan. 19 post from their joint Instagram account Lady & Larder. “Boo was our magic maker, our color painter, and the brightest light I have ever known. We ask for your patience and understanding as we navigate this overwhelmingly painful time.”
She continued, “Your continued support means more than words could ever say. Thank you, from the depths of my being, for standing with us during this unimaginable time.”
Rebecca was mother to two daughters, Mavis Loretta, 3, and Bertie Lou, 2, whom she shared with husband Sean Montes.
In addition to her work with Sarah and Lady & Larder, she also acted as creative director for Lazy Dog Restaurants and shared her art—which included paintings, graphic designs and handmade Halloween costumes—under the Instagram handle Wylie West Creative.
