Mitt Romney’s family is mourning the loss of his sister‑in‑law, Carrie Elizabeth Romney, who was found dead in a parking garage in Valencia, a Los Angeles suburb, on Friday night. The 64‑year‑old was discovered near a shopping‑mall parking lot around 8:30 p.m. her car had been left inside a multi‑story garage close to the Hyatt Regency Hotel.
Romney issued a statement to People on Monday, saying: “Our family is heartbroken by the loss of Carrie, who brought warmth and love to all our lives. We ask for privacy during this difficult time.” The ex‑Utah senator’s wife, Ann Romney, and the rest of the family have requested no further media coverage.
Los Angeles County authorities say the cause of Carrie’s death is still under investigation. The medical examiner’s office has labeled the death “deferred” as more tests are pending, and her body was deemed ready for release. Police and the county spokesperson say there is no evidence of foul play.
Carrie was married to Scott (George) Romney, the older brother of former Senator Mitt Romney. Scott and Carrie had been married for eight years before divorcing in June. The couple was private, rarely seen in public together. While Carrie’s death brings new grief to the Romney family, officials have not released further details about the circumstances of her fall or possible jump from the garage.
The incident has drawn attention to a tragic loss that is still unfolding. Mitt Romney has urged support for his family’s need for privacy during this difficult time.
