The deadly disappearance of country musician Luke Bell was reportedly not the first time he had vanished. Unfortunately this time, he was found dead.
Apparently, he is dealing with Bipolar Disorder and while the autopsy is pending, it is now already being reported as the real cause of his death.
The late 32-year-manager, old's Brian Buchanan, told TMZ that Bell never found a method to deal with his bipolar disease and had previously disappeared, but was always located.
"Luke fought this as hard as he could, but the disease got the better of him," Buchanan said. "When he was beating the disease, he was the sweetest and most generous guy. He's found peace now and there's some comfort."
On Monday, Bell's body was located in Tucson, Arizona, near the location where he was reported missing 10 days earlier.
According to the publication, he and fellow country artist Matt Kinman were in town to visit Kinman's relatives and perform music.
The pair had planned to grab some dinner before Bells vanished.
The official cause of death of Bell is pending autopsy results but many are already making to link to this condition.
Kinman revealed to the music blog The Boot that his pal was diagnosed with bipolar disorder and that a recent adjustment in his medication may have "played a factor" in his disappearance.
While he was prescribed medication, his manager is confused as to whether or not he took it before to his abduction.
The Post has reached out to a Bell spokesperson for comment. Members of the country music community commemorated Bell on social media upon the news of his passing.
"Man...Luke Bell... what the f-k," fellow country star Joshua Hedley tweeted. "RIP to a real one. Been a long time since I saw him and I was just talking about him the other day wondering what he's been up to. Truly a sad night for country music."
Meanwhile, Mike and the Moonpies posted an emotional tribute on Facebook. They said that the news of Luke Bell's passing has just reached us, and we are devastated. They remembered the first time they saw Luke for the first time at Hole in the Wall over ten years ago and it was clear that he could leave an impact. He was not a man to just forget. They encouraged people to play a Luke Bell song in his honor.
