‘I appreciate all your prayers and love and thank you for giving us privacy as we grieve and say goodbye, ‘ he added. He became engaged to his girlfriend in August 2014 after proposing during one of Eddie’s concerts.

Hunter Montgomery was the youngest of Eddie Montgomery’s four children with his ex-wife, Tracy. They also share two daughters, Brooke and Candace, and a son, Kevin. In 2010, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer (which was removed) and then went through a divorce with wife Tracy Nunan.

“Our sincerest love, thoughts and prayers are with Eddie today”, the tweet read. Montgomery was declared cancer free one year later.

Hunter’s funeral arrangements are pending as the family navigates this hard time. He filed for personal bankruptcy in January 2014, citing debt from a failed restaurant venture and an earlier divorce. The duo had released their Folks Like Us studio album in June, which was produced by Michael Knox, via their new record label Blaster Records, through RED Distribution.
