The media speculates that the loss of his mother, Joyce McQueen, was too much for the young designer to handle. Their relationship was very close and the loss of both Joyce and Alexander have left the family raw. Joyce passed away on February 2, 2010.
Not only did Alexander McQueen leave behind such works of art, he has also left behind a lasting impression on the fashion industry.
His father, three sisters, and two brothers are devastated and raw at the loss of both Joyce and Alexander and wish not to be bothered at this time regarding their loss. PoshDogWalk only wishes them strength and our prayers are with them during their time of grievance.
