  • Demi Lovato Expresses Grief Over “Sonny With A Chance” Costar Tiffany Thornton’s Husband’s Tragic Death

    Demi Lovato starred alongside actress Tiffany Thornton in Disney Channel’s Sonny With a Chance. In the wee hours of Friday morning, Thornton’s husband, Chris Carney, died in a tragic car crash along with friend Ezekial Blanton. He was just 35 years old.

    The “Confident” singer caught the bouquet at Thornton’s wedding to Carney. Later on Friday, Demi Lovato took to Twitter to express her grief over this devastating loss.

    The singer also Tweeted a now-bittersweet wedding photo of Chris Carney and Tiffany Thornton. Fans can see Demi Lovato with boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama in the shot as well.

    Demi Lovato also posted this photo to her Instagram page, along with a link to a GoFundMe page for Tiffany Thornton and the two little boys she now must raise alone.

    “Been trying to figure out what to say all day… This morning I woke up to terrible news. My good friend Chris Carney has passed away. This picture is a perfect example of the love he shared with Tiff and how much fun he was to be around. I’ve been to many weddings but this is by far the most memorable because the way they looked into each other’s eyes and the love they had for one another. There were tons of laughs and tons of tears and I’ll never forget the way he looked at her. It doesn’t seem real and I’m still in shock.. Still speechless. I don’t know how to put into words how heartbroken I am for Tiffany and their two baby boys. You’re already missed Chris.. And Tiffany I love you so much.. I’m so unbelievably sorry… There are still no words. For those who would like to help the family at this time you can help support @tiffthornton and her precious babies KJ and Bentley by donating at https://gofund.me/4gdfn773?pc=tw_cr_n #RIPChrisCarney #prayfortiffany ?” she captioned the Instagram post.

    Wilmer Valderrama is the godfather of Tiffany Thornton and Chris Carney’s three-year-old son. He has yet to post anything about the tragedy on social media.

    Hopefully having good friends like Demi Lovato and Wilmer Valderrama in her corner will help Tiffany Thornton through these next painful days and weeks. She has a long road ahead as a newly-single mom of two young boys.

  • Tiffany Thornton: “Sonny With a Chance” Star’s Husband Chris Carney Dies in Car Accident

    Tiffany Thornton, known for her role in the Disney Channel’s Sonny With a Chance, lost her husband, Chris Carney, in a car accident early on Friday morning. He was just 35 years old.

    The father of two was a passenger in a vehicle driven by friend, 37-year-old Ezekiel Blanton, when the car hit a tree while going around a bend. Blanton was killed in the crash, too.

    Tiffany Thornton and Chris Carney had two children together. Kenneth James “KJ” Carney is three and Bentley Cash Carney is just 21 months old. How sad that these little boys will have so few memories of their dad as they are growing up.

    Demi Lovato starred in Sonny With a Chance with Tiffany Thornton and even caught the bouquet at her wedding to Chris Carney. She Tweeted her disbelief when she learned of the tragedy.

    Demi Lovato’s boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama is the godfather of Tiffany Thornton and Chris Carney’s older boy. He has yet to comment on social media.

    It was only a couple of weeks ago that Tiffany Thornton, a 105.9 KLAZ radio show host and blogger for Disney, shared she had lost a very close friend named Brittany Blanton. She shared her sorrow via Instagram.

    “I keep thinking this can’t be real. One of my very best friends is gone and the place she holds in my heart will never be filled. Brittany was one of the coolest people I’ve ever known, filled with the loudest and most contagious laughter, a huge heart, a beautiful smile and an unbelievable faith in others that not a lot of people have. It was such a blessing having her stand by me in my wedding and I was honored to stand by her in hers. From way too much eye shadow, bangs, boyfriends we THOUGHT were our soul mates, trips to Destin and Cancun, late nights at the Blanton casa with way too much queso, to growing older, nights of reminiscing, phone calls to help eachother keep our chins up in the tough times, and laughing at how cool we thought we were back in the day….and still eating way too much queso….you will forever be missed. Reserve me a spot next to you in Heaven BB, I know I’ll see you,” she captioned a photo montage of her late friend.

    It’s uncertain if Brittany Blanton was related to Ezekiel Blanton, the man who was killed alongside Chris Carney.

    Tiffany Thornton has a long road ahead of her. Not only must she bury a young husband, she must try to figure out a way for his sudden absence to make sense to her very young sons.

    Hopefully lots of close family members and friends and able and willing to step in and help her for as long as she needs them.
