He added that his team's main focus is to console the Forbes family and also ensure that AKA's only daughter Kairo Forbes gets financial stability. He said:
"The family are shocked, numb, deeply hurt and deeply saddened. But on the other hand, Kieran has been the happiest in the last six months so it was great to see him at peace. He was happy in his last days rather than about a year and a half ago when he was completely depressed."
