Drew Carey breaks his silence after ex-fiancée Amie Harwick's murder

Amie Harwick, who was previously engaged to actor and TV host Drew Carey, was killed over the weekend.

According to CNN, police responded to reports of a "woman screaming". They met with the 38-year-old's roommate in the street who said Amie was being assaulted inside.

The LA sex therapist was found unresponsive on Saturday beneath a third-storey balcony with injuries alluding to a fall of some sort. She was rushed to hospital but died shortly after.

Amie's former boyfriend who she's had a restraining order against (though it recently expired), Gareth Pursehouse, has been arrested in connection with the murder.

Drew Carey took to Twitter on Monday, responding to the news of his ex-fiancée death.

Drew and Amie started dating in 2017 and got engaged a year later. Though their relationship ended, the Price Is Right host shared a video of the two and in the emotional post wrote, "I hope you're lucky enough to have someone in your life that loves as much as she did."

His rep also told TMZ, "Amie and I had a love that people are lucky to have once in a lifetime. She was a positive force in the world, a tireless and unapologetic champion for women, and passionate about her work as a therapist. I am overcome with grief. I would like to thank you in advance for giving myself and everyone who loved Amie privacy while we try to work through this tragic situation."

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the Price Is Right taping has been postponed following the tragic death.
