Rivera went missing during a boating trip at Lake Piru in Ventura County, California. Ventura County Sheriff Bill Ayub confirmed Monday that her body has been found.
"This is an absolute nightmare," writes Bebe Rexha. "I had the pleasure of having dinner with her once after a recording session we did together and she was an absolute sweetheart. My heart goes out to her family and friends. I hope I’m lucky enough to meet you up in heaven. Rest In Peace Naya Rivera"
