Katie Gaudreau, the sister of NHL veteran Johnny Gaudreau and Matthew Gaudreau, has reportedly canceled her wedding in Philadelphia Friday after her brothers’ tragic deaths. 

Katie and her fiancé, Devin Joyce, were preparing to be married Friday at St. Mary’s Roman Catholic Church in Gloucester City, New Jersey, before celebrating their union with a reception in Philadelphia.

The family did not confirm the news but did release a statement thanking everyone for their support. 

"Last night we lost two husbands, two fathers, two sons, two brothers, two sons and brother-in-laws, two nephews, two cousins, two family members, two teammates, two friends but truly two amazing humans," the statement said.

According to Katie and Devin’s wedding website, both Gaudreau brothers and their wives were supposed to be in the bridal party.

GAUDREAU FAMILY ISSUES HEARTBREAKING STATEMENT AFTER SUSPECTED DRUNK DRIVER IS CHARGED IN BROTHERS’ DEATHS

Sean Higgins, 43, was arrested and charged after New Jersey State Police said he attempted to pass two other vehicles and struck the Gaudreau brothers from behind. Higgins was suspected of being under the influence of alcohol. 

Police said Higgins failed a field sobriety test and also admitted to a responding officer to drinking five or six beers before the accident. He also admitted to consuming alcohol while driving, police added.

Higgins appeared virtually before a judge Friday. Prosecutors requested that he be detained, and the judge agreed, setting his detention hearing for Thursday. 

Higgins then asked, "So, I’m here until Thursday?" The judge explained that because of the motion, he is required to hold Higgins for a minimum of 72 hours. Because of the holiday weekend, it means the earliest he can appear in court is Thursday, Sept. 5.
