She recounted a typical conversation between the friends, where Yomi would inform Alexx that his outfit was ready, and the actor would respond that he was on his way to try it on, followed by playful banter between them.
However, she noted that things took a painful turn when her husband recently informed his friend that his suit was ready, but received no response.
Instead, Yomi Casual was forced to take the outfit to the funeral home and dress his late friend himself.
Expressing her sorrow, Grace questioned how her husband was expected to heal from such a painful loss.
