HONG KONG - Hong Kong-American singer Coco Lee's estranged husband, Canadian businessman Bruce Rockowitz, has broken his silence a day after her death.

The pop diva, who had battled depression, died on Wednesday (July 5) following a suicide attempt on Sunday. She was 48.

Rockowitz, who is in his mid-60s, was reportedly away from Hong Kong, where he is based, at the time of her death, but flew back the next day.
