Luke Bryan has always been a beacon of joy with his music and on “American Idol,” but now he’s sharing his deep family pain. The country superstar is opening up like never before about the tragic loss of his brother, Chris, who died in a car accident in 1996 and his sister, Kelly, whose sudden death in 2007 left more questions than answers. An emotional Luke shared his grief process on CNN’s “All There Is with Anderson Cooper” podcast and set the record straight about Kelly’s passing.
