Katharine McPhee Shares Emotional Tribute Following Her Father's Death

On July 3, Katharine McPhee was on top of the world after getting engaged to her boyfriend David Foster, but a lot can change in two weeks.

On Monday (July 16), the 34-year-old singer confirmed that she had lost her father in an emotional Instagram post.

“I can’t believe I’m even writing this,” she began. “But it is with heavy heart that I share that my sweet sweet Papa left this earth yesterday morning. We as a family are completely heartbroken and devastated. He was my biggest fan, my biggest champion, always telling me to ‘Give em hell kid!’”

“He was so kind and caring and made sure we knew how much he loved us. Not sure my heart will ever be the same," she continued.  "I’m so sad he missed my broadway debut. But when I return to the stage next week I hope he can watch it in peace and from up above. Thank you to all my friends who’ve been so loving and supportive these last 48 hours. I love you Papa. I already miss you so much. This hurts."

Check out the heartfelt tribute below.

Just days before his death, McPhee informed her Broadway fans she'd be missing some upcoming performances due to a "family emergency."
