Country singer Jake Flint died just hours after he walked down the aisle. He was 37.

Flint married fiancee Brenda on Nov 26. He died in his sleep hours later, his publicist said.

“I can confirm that Jake died in his sleep sometime in the night following his wedding. No cause of death has been determined,” publicist Clif Doyal told NBC News on Monday.

The singer’s widow shared a video of their wedding shortly after the news of his death.

She wrote: “I don't understand ... people aren't meant to feel this much pain..

“We should be going through wedding photos but instead I have to pick out clothes to bury my husband in.

“My heart is gone and I just really need him to come back. I can't take much more. I need him here."
