Hank Williams Jr.'s wife, Mary Jane Thomas, has unexpectedly died on Tuesday.
Multiple news outlets confirmed that Thomas, 58 (others stated she was 61), was rushed to a local hospital from the Jupiter Beach Resort and Spa around 5:00 p.m. However, she was later pronounced dead.
As of press time, her death does not seem to be suspicious, and she seemingly suffered a complication following a medical procedure.
It remains unknown where she received the medical procedure and what kind of operation she underwent. But Daily Mail reported that the resort where she came from is now "closed until further notice."
Thomas death is the latest loss the family has suffered from following their daughter's death. Katie Williams died in a car crash in 2020. At that time, Tennessee's Department of Safety and Homeland Security Communications Director, Wes Moster, the then-27-year-old was driving a 2007 Chevy Tahoe heading southbound in Henry County when it crashed.
Hank and Thomas first met in 1985 during the country singer's concert in Washington State. Five years later, they tied knots and welcomed two children - Kate and Samuel Williams.
In 2007, they decided to separate and end their relationship. But after four years of trying again and working on their marriage, they got back together again.
Thomas was the musician's third wife, after Gwen Yeargain and Becky White.
Will Mary Jane Thomas' Death Affect Hank Williams Jr.'s Schedule?
Thomas' passing came after Williams finalized his tours for this year.
On March 12, Oswald Entertainment Group confirmed that the country singer would spearhead Deadwood Live! Summer Concert alongside Shinedown.
"I think Hank is a really, really avid western historian. He knows a lot about the history of the Wild West, and he loves American history, so I think that probably played into it. It's a combination of the venue being special, the 40-year relationship with the artist that I have, and the fact that the town itself is so special. All that kind of has to come together for something to happen," Marc Oswald said.s
Williams also personally offered his tour dates on the table, saying he was ready to feed his hungry fans again. For what it's worth, he only had one tour in 2020 and nine in 2021.
His tour will start on April 1 at Landers Center before visiting other venues, including Alerus Center, Wells Fargo Arena, Golden Nugget, Simmons Bank Arena, and Neon Lights Festival, among others.
Williams has not confirmed whether these days would change after Thomas' death.
