The former Disney star took to Instagram on Saturday to commemorate Chris, who died in a car crash one day earlier.

The 35-year-old was best known for appearing on the 2006 MTV series “twentyfourseven,” and his work with rock band The Prom Kings. His mother is Hot Springs mayor Ruth Carney.
Tiffany, 29, co-starred with Demi Lovato on the Disney Channel’s “Sonny With a Chance” for two years, and headlined its spin-off series “So Random!”
The actresses became close, and Demi served as a bridesmaid at Tiffany and Chris’ wedding in 2011.
Demi expressed her sorrow over Chris’ passing on social media Friday night, sharing a photo of her and boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama celebrating the couple at their nuptials.
