Chelsey Yeager took to her Instagram earlier today (Sunday, June 24) to share a photo of her kissing Vinnie Paul in a car, along with the following message: “I want to thank each & every one of you guys for sending your love! Please please give me & all of our family/friends time. I can’t begin to describe the pain in my heart from this nightmare… I have absolutely no other words.”
Yeager and Vinnie Paul had reportedly been a couple for at least five years prior to the drummer’s tragic death. They lived in Las Vegas.
