She was also caring for her mother and sister at the time.

The Real World has been on air since 1992 and has 33 seasons.

Sarah first appeared on the fifth season of The Real World in Miami on MTV, where she worked at a comic bookstore in La Jolla, California.

Sarah was 25 years old when she starred on the popular reality series in 1996.

Fans are particularly fond of one episode in Season 13 when Sarah brought home a puppy, named Leroy.

The reality show follows a group of people from different backgrounds who eventually find common ground.

Sarah’s co-stars included Dan Renzi, Melissa Padrón, Joe Patane, Cynthia Roberts, Flora Alekseyeun, and Mike Lambert.

Sarah's friends have taken to social media to remember how she had impacted their lives.

“Sarah Becker was made of pure sunshine… Full of energy and positivity, you couldn’t help but feel her warmth standing in her presence," Daniel Norton posted on Facebook.

"I am grateful for our adventures and laughs. Big hugs to all the Wildstorm fam!”

He also added, “I think Sarah was always one of those people, that after you’ve met them, you have a fond memory or a funny story with them in it."

"Something you can always look back on and share with who you’re with. That was her power.”

In addition to struggling with her mental health, Becker had reportedly been involved in a skateboarding accident.

Another reality TV star also commented on Sarah's death.

“I just found out that one on the nicest people that have ever been put in my life, especially during my impressionable ages in my life has passed away," Joel Benjamin wrote on Facebook.

"Every time I thought of her I would always see her smile, and bubbly personality. You were loved and will be missed."

Joel shared a couple of photos of him and Sarah together.
