WWE superstar Alba Fyre's mum tragically dies aged 51 in horror accident while on holiday in Florida just days before homecoming at Clash of the Castle in Glasgow

The mother of Scottish WWE superstar Alba Fyre died in a horror accident while on holiday in Florida visiting her daughter. 

Bridgeen Mitchell, 51, was struck by a vehicle in Orlando as she crossed the street last month, and was pronounced dead at the scene. 

Mitchell was on a family holiday to visit her daughter Kayleigh Rae - professionally known as Alba Fyre - and was crossing the road with her partner when the incident happened. 

Local police said the driver co-operated at the scene, and no charges are expected, as reported by the Daily Record.

Alba Fyre, 31, shared a moving tribute on social media, which read: 'On Friday my mum and dad were hit by a vehicle while crossing the road. Unfortunately my mum didn't make it. 

'Words cannot describe how devastated we all are. She was the most caring, fun loving person, the life of every party, and the biggest wee legend we all knew. She was greatly loved and will be deeply missed.

'We know everyone will be feeling this loss, and while our family would appreciate some privacy at this time we'd like people to remember my mum for all the love she brought to everyone.'

Her dad Ronnie Higgins said: 'I can't come to terms with what has happened to us. 

'I am struggling but we are strong people together and my aim in life now is to carry on being strong for the rest of our family the way Bridgeen would have. 

'My world has been ripped apart.'

Family friends have set up a fundraiser to help repatriate Bridgeen Mitchell's body back to Scotland, raising over £3,200 so far. 

Alba Fyre is now preparing for Saturday's Clash at the Castle event in Scotland, in what will be an emotional homecoming where she will team up with Isla Dawn to form The Unholy Union for the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships.

Under the ring name Kay Lee Ray, she held the NXT UK Women’s Championship for 649 days, a record for a women’s title in WWE. 

After making a name for herself in UK wrestling, she headed to America, and married fellow Scottish wrestler Stevie Boy in 2021.
