Late WWE Star Sara Lee's Husband Breaks Silence On Her Passing With Tear-Jerking Message

Westin Blake, husband of the late WWE wrestler Sara Lee, shared a tear-jerking letter to her. Lee passed away earlier this month, and her family made the announcement to the public shortly after.

The "Tough Enough" winner's cause of death was not revealed; however, at the time, the family said the unexpected development stunned them. They then asked the public for some privacy to grieve.

Blake, born Cory James, shared a late emotional post concerning his wife's passing where he declared his love for her and said she was the "backbone" of the family. He revealed that he wasn't sure he would ever stop fully grieving, but he knew she was in a better place.

Ex-WWE wrestler Blake took to Instagram earlier today to post a letter addressed to his late wife, Lee. In the tear-jerking post, he called her an "angel walking on this earth" and said he fell in love with her from the first moment. Blake described her as "beautiful, compassionate, strong, and so loving."

The father of three continued, "An angel that blessed me with 3 of the most beautiful children I could imagine. But you were so much more than just mom. You were a motivator, a best friend, a sister, a daughter, an aunt, the backbone of our family, and (my favorite), my wife. I really don't know what to say in these uncertain times."

Blake added that despite the situation, death was unable to take away the memories the couple made together over the years. "I can't promise that I will stop grieving, but I know now that you're free," he concluded. "I can't thank you enough for giving me the best years of my life so far."

On October 6, the "Tough Enough" winner passed away, and her family took to Facebook to announce the sad news to the public. Lee's cause of death was not revealed; however, her mother, Terri, disclosed that funeral arrangements were already underway to lay the 30-year-old to rest.

"It is with heavy hearts we wanted to share that our Sara Weston has gone to be with Jesus," the Facebook post read. "We are all in shock, and arrangements are not complete."

"We ask that you respectfully let our family mourn. We all need prayers, especially [husband] Cory and her children," Terri concluded. Besides her husband Blake, Lee left behind her three young children, the oldest of which is five years old, while the second and youngest are three years and 14 months, respectively.

Shortly after Lee passed, her fellow wrestler Bull James opened up a GoFundMe for her husband Blake and three children. Several WWE stars shared the GoFundMe, and donations sailed past the target of $20,000, bringing in at least three times the amount.

James recently shared a statement from the family that thanked everyone who donated. "On behalf of the Weston and Lee family, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for the love that has been shown towards [Lee's husband] Cory [James Weston], Sara, and their beautiful children," the statement read.

"Cory has taken a step back from social media but is blown away by the generosity everyone has shown," it continued. "Through the darkest times, you guys have been a ray of light. Thank you, will never be enough."

Lee joined WWE on a one-year contract after she won the sixth iteration of the "Tough Enough" competition show. While in the organization, she was an NXT wrestler until WWE released her in September 2016 after her contract expired. Lee then wrestled on the independent circuit.

After the news of her passing spread, WWE and several of the wrestler's colleagues posted tributes to her on social media. The company's post read, "WWE is saddened to learn of the passing of Sara Lee."

"As a former 'Tough Enough' winner, Lee served as an inspiration to many in the sports-entertainment world. WWE offers its heartfelt condolences to her family, friends, and fans," it concluded.
