Following The Challenge, Diem did make a name for herself as an entertainment reporter after and their paths crossed on the reality television circuit.
He was known as a bit of a villain on the reality show, and Knight himself jokingly put his Twitter bio as: 'Sooooo I'm the a**hole'.

Worryingly his last tweet on Wednesday was simply a message that read 'You used to mean a lot'.
His ex-girlfriend Jemmye Carroll took to Twitter on Thursday to say 'thank you for your kind words' to her followers. 
She added: 'Words will never be enough to justify the connection we shared and the pain I will forever feel. RIP'.
