A tragic incident occurred in Atlanta, where a 3-year-old girl drowned in the home swimming pool of Quad Webb, a star of the reality TV show “Married to Medicine,” according to confirmed reports by TMZ. The incident took place on July 7 at Quad’s residence in Marietta, Cobb County.
According to law enforcement sources, police and fire departments responded to a drowning call at Quad’s home. The incident was reported by two men who had been hanging out around the pool before going inside. They later noticed what they initially thought was a doll floating in the water. Upon realizing that it was a little girl, they immediately called 911, as documented in a police report obtained by WSB-TV Channel 2 Atlanta.
Tragically, the child who drowned was identified as Aryanna “Ari” Rice, the daughter of Tamica Webb. She was rushed to a nearby hospital but was pronounced dead upon arrival. The circumstances leading up to the incident are still unclear, including whether Quad was present at home during the incident.
Quad had previously posted about celebrating Ari’s third birthday earlier this year. In her heartfelt message, she expressed her love and gratitude for being a part of Ari’s life, stating, “I remember you falling asleep laying on my chest… You’re so special to me, and I’m grateful to be a part of your life! I got you forever!!!”
Quad has been vocal about her involvement in Ari’s life since the child’s birth in 2020. In an interview with The Daily Dish, she clarified that Ari is not her adopted daughter, emphasizing that the child has a mother and she plays a supportive role in her life.
As news of the tragic incident broke, the public and fans of “Married to Medicine” expressed their condolences and support for Quad and the Webb family. Quad’s representative has been contacted for comment, but no response has been received thus far.
Drowning incidents, especially involving young children, serve as a tragic reminder of the importance of pool safety measures. It is crucial for homeowners to ensure that proper pool barriers, secure gates, and constant supervision are in place to prevent such accidents. Additionally, parents and guardians should teach children water safety and swimming skills from an early age to prevent drowning incidents.
This heartbreaking incident involving Quad Webb and the loss of little Ari has left a deep impact on those who know the family and the fans of “Married to Medicine.” It serves as a reminder to cherish and prioritize the safety of our loved ones, especially around bodies of water. Our thoughts and prayers are with Quad Webb, Tamica Webb, and their entire family during this unimaginably difficult time.
