The news of the tragic demise of the 35-year-old rugby player has taken over the internet. Simon Dunn’s cause of death hasn’t been revealed yet. According to police officials, there were no signs of suicide.

The arts, sports, and LGBTQ communities have all been shocked by the loss of the 35-year-old who had made substantial contributions to sports

The information has been verified by the authorities and his management company, Ruby Rose Management. The man’s body was reportedly discovered inside his Sydney Hills apartment on January 21, 2023, South Wales police confirmed.

In addition to being a pioneer in the rugby world, Simon Dunn was a strong supporter of the LGBTQ+ movement and an engaged member of the arts community. 

While living in Canada, he developed a love for bobsledding, and he later represented Australia in the North American Cup. Even after suffering a severe injury, he intended to recover in time to compete for Australia in 2022 at the Beijing Winter Olympics.

He addressed the subject of homophobia in sports and reached out to Wallaby Israel Folau for his disputed remarks that all h*mosexual people were going to hell. 

He stated: “In sports, homophobia still exists. It’s a mentality that has developed and been established over many years, and I believe we are still in the process of doing the work necessary to eliminate it.”

“Despite rugby being a more tolerant sport, the majority of the criticism comes from fans”, he added. 

Simon’s picture of kissing his ex-boyfriend also made rounds in the media following the Sydney Convicts’ victory in the championship game. He did that to express acceptance and affection for the sport.

In the past, he had been upfront about his issues dealing with his h*mosexuality, psychological health, and injuries.

Sad to hear about the recent passing away of the gay rugby star and bobsledder player, Simon Dunn (aged 35).

The trailblazer leaves an amazing legacy, as Simon was the first openly gay male to represent any country in the sport of bobsleighing. ♥️♥️#SimonDunn pic.twitter.com/RhslV7d6l8
