In an Instagram statement released Thursday that was translated by The New York Post from Portuguese, the record label wrote, “There are very difficult situations in life for which we have no explanation. We just need to understand that God’s will prevails! Pedro was a happy young man, a friend to all. An only son. A present husband and a super dedicated father…The Christian music sector is in mourning. The Todah Music family is in mourning. Heaven in chorus welcomes an illustrious son: Pedro Henrique! So long, dear brother! So long! May the Holy Spirit comfort everyone.”
The Daily Mail reported that Henrique reportedly joked about his level of weariness a few hours before taking the stage for what would become his last performance on Wednesday. The gospel singer allegedly told a friend, “I’m tired. I’m tired. That’s why I want fame. I’m tired.”
According to The New York Post, Henrique leaves behind his wife, Sulian Barreto, as well as the couple’s 2-month-old daughter, Zoe.
