Kate Spade's husband, Andy, shares touching tribute in first Instagram since her death
As the two-month mark since Kate Spade‘s suicide approaches, her husband is opening up about how he and their daughter are remembering the designer.
Andy Spade, who is the brother of actor David Spade, shared his first Instagram post since his wife of 24 years was found dead in June at the Manhattan apartment they once shared. According to a statement released by her widower, the couple had lived apart for about 10 months but had not planned to divorce.
The grieving Spade’s new Instagram reveals how good friends and a tribute to the fashion icon helped him and 13-year-old daughter Frances Beatrix cope in the wake of her untimely death. During a stay with loved ones this summer, father and daughter set up an impromptu Christmas tree as a sweet nod to Spade’s fondness for the holiday.
