The 51-year-old country singer has had a very difficult past few years. He and Tracy split around the same time he was diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2010. In January 2014, he filed for personal bankruptcy, but he married then-girlfriend Jennifer Belcher in April, only to get caught in a tornado a few days later.
Funeral arrangements for Hunter are pending, according to Eddie's statement.
