Kandi Burruss, the newest ATL housewife and hit songwriter to Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, TLC and Pink, suffered the tragic loss of her fiance Ashley “A.J.” Jewell when he sustained fatal injuries following a fight outside of a strip club in Atlanta last night.

"It appears he was involved in an altercation in the parking lot and he received a severe blow to the head," Atlanta Police Lt. Keith Meadows tells WSBTV. And although police are still trying to determine a motive for the fight, "We have developed a person of interest and we've made contact with him to question him about the incident," said the Lt.

Anyone who watched the season knows how much Kandi was in love with her fiance, whom fought frequently with her mother about.

"I could never in a million years imagine this happening," Kandi tweeted this morning. "Please pray for A.J.'s children...that's who i'm the most concerned for. I'm about to give my swollen eyes some rest now. I just wanted to say thanks two everyone for their prayers."
