WWE Hall of Famer Bret “The Hitman” Hart took to Facebook earlier today, paying tribute to his niece Tanya Hart after she passed away suddenly. Natalya also issued a statement (see below) on her cousin’s passing. Bret Hart said,
“It’s heartbreaking for the entire Hart Family to learn of the sudden passing of my niece Tanya Hart. Of all the Hart grandchildren, nobody had to deal with a troubled life more than her. Tanya’s mother passed away when she was too young to understand. My late brother Smith had many failings as a man, but being a father was his biggest failure despite how hard he tried. I know that every family member always filled in as best they could with love and kindness, but it would never be enough. Tanya never really found a path to happiness, and losing her weighs heavily on us. We did our best, but it was never enough for this sweet, troubled girl. We will live with all our fond memories with her sweet smile, her love of cats and her calmness in so many storms. She had a difficult life from the very start, and every day was a struggle, but she’s free and at peace finally. Love is all around her now. She will be missed more than she’ll ever know.”
We send our sincere condolences to the entire Hart family for their loss.

On social media, Natalya broke the tragic news and spoke about her cousin, saying:
“Thinking of my beautiful cousin, Tanya tonight, who passed away today at 37. I know these last few years were hard for you, and you struggled greatly, but you were so loved by all of us, Tanya. So deeply loved.”
Natalya was also mourning the loss of Scott Hall, a close friend of the Hart family who died yesterday aged 63.
Our condolences go out to Natalya at this especially difficult time.
