TMZ Sports was able to speak with her and she revealed that the bodybuilder was found unconscious in his home sometime after midnight. It was a friend who found him.

Brooke also said that they have just spoken on the phone, and McCarver told her that he was preparing dinner. The last thing he allegedly said to her was "I love you. Goodbye."

The police responded to a 911 call at his home at Broken Sound Parkway in Boca Roton, minutes after midnight on Aug. 21, according to People.

He was sent to a local hospital but was announced dead on arrival. The cause of death was apparently choking on food. According to the publication, authorities said that foul play did not seem to be involved in the incident, neither did McCarver try to harm himself. However, they are all still waiting for the final medical examiner's report.

"Aug. 22 the lord received another angel, who happens 2 be my LIFE – MY Dallas the one WHO ONLY UNDERSTOOD ME! I can speak on the behalf of his family– the love and support you all are showing for him & us is OVERWHELMING!!" Brooke wrote on Instagram in another post uploaded after the death of her boyfriend.

The 26-year-old bodybuilder had reportedly been active on Instagram earlier this week, posting a photo of him working out, appearing to be healthy and in good condition.

It can be recalled that McCarver, who has been in the bodybuilding community since he was 21 years old, bagged the eighth place in the Mr. Olympia competition last year.
