Linda Thompson has reacted after the horrible family tragedy that took place at his ex-husband David Foster’s house.

Katharine McPhee who is the current wife of David shared an emotional statement on social media announcing that there’s been "a horrible tragedy" in their family, prompting them to rush home from Asia.

McPhee has been forced to bow out of their final two shows in Jakarta, Indonesia following the emergency that requires "at least one of" of them to head home immediately.

"Dearest Jakarta fans, it’s with heavy heart I announce I have to miss our final two shows of our Asia run," McPhee wrote in a statement on Instagram Friday morning.

"David and I have had a horrible tragedy in our family and at least one of us need to get back home to our family."
