Tammy Hembrow has had her past pulled back into the spotlight as images of her being carried out of Kylie Jenner's 21st birthday after a collapse resurfaced.
The fitness influencer, 31, made headlines in 2018 when she was photographed lying face-down in a stretcher outside of the trendy nightspot Delilah in West Hollywood.
Now, the shock moment has gone viral once more after Outspoken the Podcast released episodes detailing the online star's rise to fame.
'I remember when this story broke at the time, there was a lot of speculation as to who this guest was at the party,' co-host Sophie Taeuber said of the incident.
'Tammy was lying face-down on the stretcher, so it led to a big guessing game. I think this made the story even bigger when it was then revealed it was Tammy.'

The influencer, who had struck up a friendship with the Kardashians at the time, has long since addressed the infamous moment.
Tammy told Stellar Magazine last year how the experience, which saw her loaded into the back of an ambulance outside the club, marked rock bottom for her.
'I kept telling myself there is only up from here,' she explained to the publication, adding she had only had 'one or two' drinks when it happened.
'It was a very dark time and I had to shut out the trolls and the hate I was getting.'
Tammy documented the experience in her book Show Up, and said she wanted to be honest with her fans.
'People look at my social media and they think, oh, she's trying to be perfect, but I'm the least perfect person ever. I wanted to show that I'm a real person,' Tammy said.
At the time, the fitness guru cried on camera while addressing the alarming photographs showing her being carried out of the bash face-down on a stretcher.
Reflecting on the incident, which happened two months after she announced her split from Reece Hawkins, Tammy blamed her lack of sleep for her horrifying collapse.
'Firstly, I want everyone to know that I'm okay... So yeah, I pretty much collapsed. Honestly, I'm already like super, super embarrassed about it,' Tammy explained.
'I probably, definitely shouldn't have been drinking because of how jet-lagged and exhausted I was, and I already wasn't feeling well.
'So basically what happened was I was in LA I was running off pretty much 30 hours of no sleep.
'I was struggling to stay awake even when I had my hair and makeup done... I could barely keep my eyes open.'
Tammy had joined a whole galaxy of stars invited to Kylie's exclusive 21st birthday bash at the hottest nightclub in West Hollywood at the time.
However, the Kardashian family ' unfollowed' Tammy on Instagram after the incident.
It comes as Tammy has revealed her heart is still 'aching' following her split from husband Matt, 30, as she mended her wounds in New Zealand.
Tammy fled Australia with her three children—Wolf, nine, Saskia, seven, and Posy, three—after news broke of their separation.
She spent much of the last week documenting her stay in New Zealand following her split from the former Love Island star.
Matt and Tammy are headed for divorce after just seven months of marriage, with the influencer jetting off to the South Island to recuperate in the wake of their split.
Tammy announced her shock split from Matt last month in an emotional video.
The former reality star also revealed the couple's separation in a sombre Instagram Story, telling fans the decision was not taken lightly.
'It's with a heavy heart I share that Tammy and I have decided to separate,' Matt began.
'Both of us have struggled with making this decision; however, we need to do what is right for ourselves and her three children.
'This wasn't a decision we took lightly. Our time together will always be cherished and never forgotten,' he added, before thanking fans for their support.
