When Tragedy Hits Home: Celebs Who Lost A Sibling

Jennifer Hudson

Tragedy struck Jennifer Hudson’s family in the worst way. Her mother, brother and nephew were all murdered at the hands of her sister’s estranged husband. In October 2008, mom Darnell Donnerson and her 27-year-old son Jason were shot and killed inside of their Chicago home. An AMBER Alert was issued for her seven-year-old nephew but he was found three days later in the same manner as his grandmother and uncle. Their killer, William Balfour, was sentenced to life in prison and the Hudson family founded The Hudson-King Foundation for Families of Slain Victims in honor of the three family members that they lost.
