Kimberly Burch, the fianceé of American rockstar Taime Downe, has died after falling overboard on a cruise ship — and her grieving family ‘want answers’ regarding the tragic event.
Downe, who was born Gustave Molvik, is a 60-year-old musician best known as the lead singer of Faster Pussycat.
The glam metal band formed in 1985 and have released four studio albums over the last three decades, with their latest effort being 2006’s The Power and the Glory Hole.
The vocalist was onboard a Royal Caribbean Explorer of the Seas cruise ship with his bride-to-be Burch, 56, as he was taking part in a week-long 80s-themed trip.
Faster Pussycat performed on the first night (2 March) of the seven-day adventure, according to The Mirror, with acts like Men at Work, Adam Ant and Tiffany due to make appearances.
At around 11pm, Burch fell from the cruise liner ‘around 20 miles’ from the shore of Freeport, Bahamas, the US Coast Guard told TMZ.
