In late March, the actress said her husband’s brother Nazir, his wife Raven O’Dea, and their three children died in a house fire in Brampton, Ontario, Canada.
“On Monday morning my husband’s only brother perished with his wife & 3 kids in a house fire,” Morgan tweeted. “I am in shock.”
Louie Felipa, Raven O’Dea’s father, told Global News that the fire grew out of control because there were no working fire alarms.
