The husband of country star Kellie Pickler (36) is dead. As the “People” magazine reports, citing the police in Nashville, Tennessee, Kyle Jacobs, also known as a musician, died at the age of 49. As the report goes on to say, the authorities are currently assuming a suicide. At the moment, investigations are only being carried out in this direction.

Before that, the singer woke up and looked for her husband in the house they shared, but could not find him. Just a day before his death, Jacobs posted an award from artist Lee Brice (43) on Instagram, on whose album “Hey World” he had worked. Captioning the post, the artist wrote, “I’m deeply honored to be a creative part of this… Thank you Jesus!!!” Kyle Jacobs was active as a songwriter and producer for numerous stars, including Grammy winner Kelly Clarkson (40) and country icon Garth Brooks (61).
