LOS ANGELES (AP) — A spokesman for the family of New York Jets owner Woody Johnson says a daughter of the businessman has died.
Spokesman Jesse Derris said Monday that the family is mourning the tragic loss of Casey Johnson. In a statement, the family asked for privacy “during this very difficult time.”
Derris wouldn’t say how or when Johnson died. TMZ.com reported that the 30-year-old Johnson was found dead Monday in Los Angeles.
Casey Johnson gained celebrity as the girlfriend of Tila Tequila, a reality TV star best known for “A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila,” which ran for two seasons on MTV.
Tequila’s publicist says the two were engaged.
