As the day continued, Housley said he feared the worst for his niece.

Just last month, Mowry-Housley gushed over her niece and how much she had grown as a person.

“My niece Alaina Housley. I can’t believe I met her when she was five,” she wrote. “She now is a Junior in high school doing a photo shoot with a 70’s theme. Kill it beauty. Good luck in all your future endeavors.”

 

Alaina Housley was 18 years old.
