Donnie Wahlberg, Jenny McCarthy Mourn Devastating Loss, Vow to 'Look In On' Her Daughter

3 August 20254 Mins Read

Blue Bloods star Donnie Wahlberg and his wife Jenny McCarthy are mourning a terrible loss this weekend. They posted on their Instagram accounts on Saturday, August 2, that a beloved New Kids on the Block fan named Kelly has died after she succumbed to her injuries from an accident.

Wahlberg wrote on Instagram alongside a photo of the two of them together:

“I often say ‘life is precious’ and ‘tomorrow is not promised.’ We are reminded of this every day. We feel it every time we have to say goodbye to a loved one, or to a BH Family member. Today is, painfully, one of those difficult days. Kelly was a Blockhead, a mother, a daughter, a sister, a friend and more. I got to know Kelly pretty well over the last few years, though she’s been around for a long time. I got to know her family over the last few days, though I hope to know them for a long time. Learning about how Kelly lived, traveled, followed her heart, planned then packed for a trip whenever her spirit was moved (to solo Joe/Vegas/The Clubhouse/I Got It parties/JK opening for N’ Sync or even to beautiful landmarks around the country with her family), I realized that she truly lived life the way we all say we want to — TO THE FULLEST! She walked the talk. She did it simply because it is who she was! It’s something that so many Blockheads, like Kelly, have in common.

“It’s something that is not lost on me, and it inspires me every single day. To keep being there. To keep following my heart. To keep living into our shared experience and to keep celebrating this magical relationship that we all share. To keep showing up — the way Kelly kept showing up. Yet, it also makes it all the more painful knowing that she was showing up again, and now she’s gone. It’s very difficult to process. I can’t understand, nor can I explain, why god moves the way god moves. I don’t know what his plan was the day Kelly left us. I can only trust that she is now on the greatest road trip of them all, with him. Following her heart, like she always did, on her way to being the same incredible angel in heaven that she was down here on earth. She will be missed. She will be remembered. She will be celebrated.

“It hurts, a lot, and it’s going to hurt for a long time. But I know that I will see that smile, and that gorgeous red hair, again. When I do, as always, I will yell “MINNESOTA”! My love to Keira and Laura, two of the bravest people I have ever met, and my love eternally to you, Kelly. My Blockhead sister & Donnie girl forever. 🙏🏼💔🕊️.”

On Kelly’s Instagram account, her daughter Keira posted details about what happened, writing, “As many of you know, my mom was in an accident last week. Unfortunately, she didn’t make it and has passed away. I’m completely shocked and heartbroken and blindsided, and I don’t think I will ever be okay. That being said, I’m forever grateful to the absolutely insane amount of support my family and I have received. For days, I’ve received dozens of messages and I’ve seen all of the prayers and well-wishes for my mom. During this time, these hopes for my and my mom’s well-being have kept me going.’

In the comments, Wahlberg wrote, “You are truly the most courageous person I have ever known. Jenny and I are here for you always. Tara too. Stay strong. Love you Keira. 💜,” to which Keira replied, “@donniewahlberg She loved you, we all love you, and I love you. Thank you for EVERYTHING, Donnie. 💜.”

On her own Instagram, McCarthy said that they would check in on Keira in the wake of her mother’s death, writing, “My Dear sweet Kelly. It all seems so surreal. I finally got to meet the wonderful ‘Minnesota girl’ that Donnie kept raving to me about. Only to find that you were even more wonderful than he described. I am completely devastated, knowing that I will not get to know you more. I truly felt like I met a friend when I met you. Donnie and I will miss you so much, and we will look in on your beautiful Keira. Rest peacefully, my beautiful friend. 🙏🏻❤️.”
