Mourning star Jennifer Hudson is so overcome with grief following the murder of three family members, she has been unable to go inside the home where the killings took place.
The singer/actress' mum, Darnell Donerson, and her brother, Jason Hudson, were found dead at their home in Chicago, Illinois on 24 October, while the body of her nephew Julian King, seven, was discovered three days later in an abandoned car in the city.
And the star is so devastated by the loss, she cannot bear to return to the scene of the slayings, according to her mentor Andre Leon Talley.
Talley, Vogue's editor-at-large, tells the New York Daily News, "I believe she went back just once, to the gate, but didn't go inside. Right now she's at an undisclosed location."
And Talley, 58, is adamant Hudson will one day pull through the tragedy.
He adds, "We've talked constantly. I've sent her many e-mails; I've sent her my support and so has Anna Wintour (U.S. Vogue editor-in-chief). And she just says thank you, thank you, thank you.
"She wants everyone, all her fans, to know how much their support has meant to her. And she's going to be all right. Jennifer has faith in God. They're just praying, every day, every minute, for the strength to get through this. And she will - she's a very strong girl."
Police are currently quizzing William Balfour, the estranged husband of Hudson's sister Julia, over the slayings, but authorities have not filed any charges against him.
