According to TMZ, just two months before Pax's bike accident, he crashed a Tesla vehicle he was driving into a parked truck outside RED Studios Hollywood.

Pax was also found not hurt, thanks to the airbag that deployed itself during the collision. However, the car wasn't so fortunate. Photos of the accident showed that the entire front of the vehicle was severely damaged beyond repair.

"It really meant a lot that my boys were with me on 'Maria,'" she admitted. "When I would have really heavy times, they would come over and just give me a hug or a cup of tea."

She explained: "That was probably one of the more intense things was that - usually when I'm expressing that much pain, it's not in front of my children. You really try to hide from your children how much pain and sadness you carry."

"And so for them to be with you when you're expressing it at such a level, I think it was the first time they ever heard me cry like that. That's usually for the shower."
