Family, friends, and fans are all mourning her death. And on Wednesday, her husband Duane Chapman spoke to the media for the first time about her passing and the difficulties he's going through.

"Dog" said that while they knew Beth would pass at some point from cancer, the end came very quickly:

“For a few years we knew this day would come. It came really unexpected, really fast. All of her clothes, her make-up, everything. We didn’t prepare.”

“You kind of try to remember that you’re celebrating life, but right now we’re mourning the death."

He also took time to warn people of fake online donation pages seeking money on behalf of the family:

“We don’t need any money at all. Please, save your money. There’s nothing being authorized from any of us.”
