Jennifer Hudson is mourning the loss of a former producer who visited her show just one day before his unexpected passing. What seemed like an ordinary reunion has now become a heartbreaking memory. The 45-year-old singer revealed that Matthew Wright, a former producer of *The Ellen DeGeneres Show* who later helped launch *The Jennifer Hudson Show*, had recently visited her studio. In an emotional Instagram tribute, Jennifer shared that Wright had stopped by on Thursday for the show's Halloween episode. She remembered his impact on the entertainment industry and sent her condolences to his family and loved ones. Wright was 52 when he D*ed on Friday while working remotely in Los Angeles. His family described the loss as an unfathomable tragedy, but his cause of passing has not been publicly disclosed. The family also launched a GoFundMe campaign to help bring his body from California to New York, where his husband, father, sister, and niece were waiting to say goodbye. The situation was made even more difficult because Wright and his husband, Justin, had both reportedly lost their jobs over the summer. Former colleague Ellen DeGeneres was among those who stepped forward to support the family, donating $5,000 to the fundraiser. Ellen also shared an emotional video tribute, remembering Wright as smart, kind, funny, and someone who made everyone around him smile. She admitted she was shocked by the news. Sometimes, an ordinary reunion becomes a memory we wish we could experience one more time. #JenniferHudson #EllenDeGeneres #MatthewWright #CelebrityNews #hollywoodnews - @bannonswarroom.us
