Kevin's followers were equally sad to hear the news and many took to the comments section to share their own tributes. "Sad news, so young," one wrote, and another added, "I was surprised when I read this I didn't even know he suffered from a lung condition. Such sad news."
Brodie and Amanda, also known as Synndy Synn, share two sons, Brodie and Nolan. Amanda wrote on Instagram: "My best friend died today. I never wanted to write out those words. My heart is broken. The world saw him as the amazing @brodielee (fka Luke Harper) but he was my best friend, my husband, and the greatest father you would ever meet. No words can express the love I feel or how broken I am right now.

She continued: "On top of that, I can’t express my love and admiration for the way @allelitewrestling has treated not only my husband but myself and my kids."
All Elite Wrestling also released their own statement that said they were "heartbroken" over his death, describing him as "simply a very kind soul that starkly contradicted his persona as Mr. Brodie Lee."
