Richard Buckley, a fashion journalist, married to designer Tom Ford, 60, has just passed away at their family home.
After 35 years of marriage, Buckley passed away of “natural causes.”
The sad news was confirmed by Ford’s team, who released a statement on Monday, September 20.
It read: “It is with great sadness that Tom Ford announces the death of his beloved husband of 35 years, Richard Buckley.
“Richard passed away peacefully at their home in Los Angeles with Tom and their son Jack by his side.”
The couple first met at a fashion show in 1986, and sparks flew between them as they started dating soon after.
After 28 years together, the pair finally decided to tie the knot in 2014, soon after same-sex marriage was legalised in the United States.
