Country star Lauren Alaina just shared the tragic news that her father, J.J. Suddeth, has died unexpectedly.

In an Instagram post on Wednesday, July 24, the 29-year-old singer announced the sad passing of her father.

Alaina is currently on tour supporting Jason Aldean, and she shared that her upcoming shows are cancelled.

“I want to let y’all know that I’m not able to play the three shows I had scheduled for this weekend in Savannah, Virginia Beach, and Charlotte as I am going home to be with my family. Thank you for your prayers and understanding. Pinky.”

She signed off with the name “Pinky”, a nod to her dad. Alaina told a story a while back about how it became his nickname for her.

“When I was little, I always held his pinky. So, when he comes to see me at my shows, he’ll stand out in the crowd and hold up his pinky. That’s his way of telling me that he loves me.”

Fans have been sending her lots of love online.
