Danny Huston’s Ex-Wife Commits Suicide

I had to look up who Danny Huston was when I wanted to report on this story because this is just another story that is so horrible. What is it with this weekend being filled with celebrity tragedy? Huston has apparently appeared in movies such as The Aviator and in his most recent, How to Lose Friends and Alienate People, but it is his role as the ex-husband of Katie Jane Evans that has him in the spotlight right now. Reports are just coming out that Katie had killed herself earlier this month and the saddest part of it all is that she has left a daughter behind to mourn her death. From The Evil Beet,

“Actor Danny Huston (his father was director John Huston) lost his wife Katie Jane Evans after she jumped from a rooftop to her death earlier this month. They married in 2001 and separated last year. Katie leaves behind a daughter, Stella. Prayers to all those affected by this tragedy.”

Although the two were separated, this is no doubt devastating news to Danny and the rest of the family. How awful for that little girl to now have to grow up without a mother and how awful for Danny to have to explain to her why. I think suicide is without a doubt the most selfish thing that a person could do and when you’re leaving children behind, it just becomes that much more cruel.
