Jennifer Hudson Thanks Fans For ‘Thoughts & Prayers’

Jennifer Hudson thanked her fans on Thursday for the support that she’s received since the tragic death of her mother, brother and nephew.

“Thank You All…I want to thank each and every one of you for your thoughts and prayers during this difficult time,” the 27-year-old Oscar winner wrote on her Celebrity MySpace. “My sister and I take great comfort and strength from your love and concern. jhud.”

As previously reported by Access, Jennifer and some of her family members have been staying at the Trump International Hotel & Tower in Chicago since the loss of her family members.

Earlier this month, the Illinois Prisoner Review Board ruled William Balfour, the only individual to be identified as a “person of interest” in the murders of Hudson’s three family members, would remain in custody while authorities continue their investigation.

Although Balfour has not been charged in connection to the slayings, the parole board ruled he had violated his parole and, as a result, would be kept in custody.
