Caitlyn Jenner‘s longtime friend Sophia Hutchins has died at 29 following a horror ATV accident near the reality star’s Malibu home.
Hutchins — who has worked as Jenner’s manager since 2017 — lost her life after striking the bumper of a moving car while she was riding an ATV on the morning on Wednesday, July 2.
Sources revealed that the impact forced the ATV over the shoulder and both the vehicle and Hutchins ended up ‘plummeting 350 feet down into a ravine.’
First responders reportedly pronounced Hutchins dead at the scene.
The two individuals in the car struck by Hutchins and the ATV were not injured.
As of now, it’s unclear If Jenner had witnessed Hutchins’ crash or if she was even home at the time of the fatal incident on Wednesday.

DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for Jenner, Hutchins and the Kardashian family for comment but has yet to hear back.
Hutchins has been Jenner’s closest confidant for over a decade after the celebrated Olympian, 75, came out as a transgender woman in 2015.
Like Jenner, Hutchins is also transgender and she frequently cited the father-of-six as her inspiration for coming out in college.
In 2017, Hutchins moved into Jenner’s $3.5million Malibu mansion and began working as the star’s manager fresh before graduating from Pepperdine University in 2018.
She took over the role from Jenner’s ex-wife Kris Jenner, 69, who divorced the star in 2015.
Despite living together under one roof, Hutchins previously told The New York Times that she and Caitlyn ‘were never romantically involved’ with each other.
Hutchins often appeared on Jenner’s E! reality series I Am Cait, which was a spin-off of Keeping Up With The Kardashians that followed the star’s shock transition.
The series ran for just two seasons but gave glimpses into Jenner and Hutchins’ unorthodox life together.

Hutchins’ last public appearance with Jenner was in 2024 when she accompanied her to the April 2024 White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington, D.C.
Like Jenner, Hutchins was a vocal supporter of President Donald Trump and the MAGA movement.
Last year, Hutchins had the opportunity to meet the billionaire.
She uploaded a photo of herself beaming beside Trump in front of an American flag with the caption: ‘The energy, passion, and commitment for our movement to Save America has never been greater! We will never give up’
