David Foster, a musician, is married to Katherine McPhee Foster, a singer, actress, and songwriter. Besides his roles as a husband and a dad, David also holds other titles, as he is a songwriter, music executive, and record producer.

When rumors circulated that the two were dating, neither confirmed that they were in a relationship. However, on November 30, 2017, Foster and McPhee were seen kissing in Los Angeles, confirming the rumors that they were dating.

In July 2018, the pair got engaged while on vacation in Italy. They later tied the knot on June 28, 2019, at the Church of Saint Yeghiche in South Kensington, London. The pair invited 150 guests, including family and friends and Foster's five daughters.

The record producer and McPhee went on to welcome one child together, Rennie David, who was born on February 21, 2021. The two parent together as well as support each other's careers. In September 2021, the couple appeared on the sixth season of "The Masked Singer" together.

Recently, the actress and Foster were together in the ongoing "David Foster & Friends Asia Tour 2023." However, McPhee announced that she would miss the final two shows of the tour because she had to go back home as a "horrible tragedy" had occurred in their family.

McPhee didn't reveal the details of what had occurred, but she said Foster would remain behind to continue with the show. The mom of one apologized to her fans and said she hoped to return one day to perform for them.

What Horrible Tragedy Had Befallen Foster's and McPhee's Family?

McPhee hasn't given further details about the horrible tragedy that hit her family. Her representatives have also not spoken about the issue. However, a source close to McPhee said their son's nanny passed away.

Foster's ex-wife Linda Thomson said she was sending love to McPhee and Foster and was "hoping that everything is okay."

The songwriter and Foster considered their son's nanny, Yadira Calito, family. Calito, who was originally from Santa Ana, El Salvador, used to take care of the pair's 15-month-old son. She was last photographed with McPhee, Foster, and their son in January 2023.

Reports say she died in a tragic car accident on August 9, 2023, at the Hamer Toyota dealership in the San Fernando Valley, California. An 84-year-old woman was driving her Toyota RAV4 when it crashed into the dealership center.

The car caused major damage and collided with several people, including 23 and 25-year-old employees who suffered non-threatening injuries. The employees were hospitalized and expected to make a full recovery.

Sadly, Calito, who was a customer at the dealership when the crash occurred, was not as lucky. The car hit the nanny and dragged her for 20 feet before she could be removed under it. A nurse who was at the scene started performing CPR on Calito before the medical team arrived.

Calito was then rushed to the hospital in critical condition, but she later died. No arrests have been made, and the car's driver wasn't injured. Reports say the driver hit the gas instead of the brakes, causing the car to crash into the customer reception area and leading to the death of Calito.

After she announced her departure from the tour in Jakarta, McPhee kept a low profile. Still, on August 11, 2023, she was seen at the Los Angeles Airport without Foster. She looked solemn and wore a baseball cap that covered her face.

When McPhee made her announcement, several people sent her messages of love and comfort. Foster's ex-wife Linda Thompson said she was sending love to McPhee and Foster and was "hoping that everything is okay."

One fan said she was so saddened by McPhee's loss and sent her comfort to the singer's family as well as Calito's family and friends. "May she rest in Love always," the person added. Other fans said they were hurting with McPhee and her family.

More fans sent their condolences to Foster and McPhee. "Sorry, Kat," a fan wrote, while another said she was sending "healing thoughts" to the entire family. "Sorry to hear what happened with your family," a fan said.

As fans sent their condolences and grieved with Foster's and McPhee's family, they also said they were glad the couple viewed their nanny as part of their family. It was touching to see the pair mourn their son's nanny and view her death as tragic.
