Caresse Henry Passes

CARESSE HENRY, 44, who rose from Madonna's personal assistant to become her manager from 1997 until 2005, has passed away after a suspected suicide in Irvine, CA. Henry and the superstar allegedly split over personal issues resulting from the superstar's Kaballah beliefs. Henry started out as an assistant to another ex-Material Girl manager, Freddy DeMann. She went on to work with Ricky Martin, Jessica Simpson, Joss Stone, Paula Abdul and Andrew Dice Clay. Another client, singer Jimmy Demers, wrote in Huffington Post that he planned to spend Easter Sunday with Caresse when he heard the news. Henry is survived by two children, Honour Kristen Norman and Ava Caresse Hinojosa, both residing in L.A. Funeral services are now scheduled to take place next Friday (4/9), 11am at St. Paul’s Church in Westwood, CA. (4/2p)
