Man found shot to death at Olivia Newton-John’s Florida home
A man was found shot to death Monday at Olivia Newton-John’s home in the small town of Jupiter Colony Inlet in Florida.
The man, whose name was not released, was a 42-year-old contractor working on the singer-actress’ home, according to the Palm Beach Post. While officials were calling it a death investigation, police reportedly suspect suicide.
“Grease” diva Newton-John shares the 7,429-square-foot home with husband John Easterling. Neither was in Florida at the time of the shooting, but their rep told Entertainment Tonight that they were “in shock” over the event.
“At this time we are awaiting additional information from investigators, but can confirm that the couple was not in Florida at the time and, the deceased was not a family member.”
