The 36-year-old beauty’s longtime love Alex Ciccotelli Jr. spent the following day in the Lower Merion Township Police Department, his uncle David Ciccotelli told Radar in an exclusive interview.

Alex Jr.’s father, Alex. Sr, told Radar the family is going through a “very stressful time” after the murder.
