Kellie Pickler (36) has to cope with a heavy loss! The singer should be known to many through her participation in the fifth season of the American talent show American Idol – after all, she fought her way up to the sixth place. Since then, the artist can look back on a successful career as a country singer. Kellie also made music together with her husband Kyle Jacobs – but now the songwriter has suddenly passed away!
A terrible incident happened on Friday afternoon: Kyle died at the age of only 49. “Local police received a 911 call from the home Friday. Officers and Nashville Fire Department personnel responded and found Kyle Jacobs, who died from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in a bedroom,” the statement said the paramedic to Variety. Any help from rescuers came too late.
As the statement goes on to say, the emergency call is said to have been made by his wife Kellie. From the statements of the singer, it can be seen that she could not find her husband and therefore began to search for him. After she failed to open the door to the room in question, the 36-year-old finally alerted the emergency services.
