A country music singer, Jake Flint has died, just hours after tying the knot with his wife.
Flint, 37, died in his sleep after he married his wife, Brenda on Saturday.
His heartbroken bride posted on Facebook: “We should be going through wedding photos but instead, I have to pick out clothes to bury my husband in. People aren’t meant to feel this much pain. My heart is gone and I just really need him to come back. I can’t take much more. I need him here.”
According to the late Flint’s publicist, Clif Doyal, the musician died in his sleep in the early hours of the morning on Sunday, 27 November.
“Flint had exchanged wedding vows with Brenda Wilson on Saturday. He was 37. No official cause of death has been determined,” said Doyal.
In a statement shared by Mr Doyal, Mr Flint’s family said they were “broken” over the “tragic loss” of their beloved son, brother, uncle and partner, known to them as Jacob.
“He valued his family, friendships and living life to the fullest, which was evident in his songwriting. Every person who knew him has a story of his wit, charm, talent and compassion.
“We are so grateful for the outpouring of support and the many beautiful tributes that have been shared about the impact Jacob had on many lives. While we grieve what we know could have been, we are grateful that his talent and love live on in his songs.”
According to Sky News, a service for Mr Flint will take place on Monday at Cedar Point Church in Claremore, Oklahoma.
