According to Jennifer Love Hewitt, the media was aware of her mother’s passing before she was.

The 45-year-old performer became well-known in the 1990s while still a teenager, appearing in films like I Know What You Did Last Summer and television series like Party of Five and Kids Incorporated.
In her forthcoming book, Inheriting Magic: My Journey Through Grief, Joy, Celebration, and Making Every Day Magical, Jennifer, who was 33 at the time, talks candidly about her experience of grieving for her mother, Patricia Hewitt, who died of cancer in 2012 at the age of 67.
At a recent bookshop event in Los Angeles, Jennifer talked about the day her mother passed away and mentioned that she had attended the 52nd Monte Carlo TV Festival in Monaco, according to the Hollywood Reporter.
Jennifer allegedly explained during the event that she was on a plane headed home when Patricia passed away, saying, “The part that I didn’t put in the book is that actually the press knew that my mom had passed before I did.”
She went on, “The flight time with me getting back was so long.” “It was really strange for me, and by the time I got there, everyone knew because it was like a 10-and-a-half-hour flight.”
According to reports, Jennifer continued by saying that this isn’t the only instance in which the media was aware of events in her life before she was.
“But everyone has always known everything about my life, kind of, before,” she remarked later. People have said things like, ‘He was cheating on you already,’ even after breakups. People, really? For example, why didn’t you tell me?
Jennifer told the Hollywood Reporter that she had never discussed her mother’s passing previously because she “didn’t have the words,” but she hopes the book will serve as a tribute to her memory.

“I was at a loss for words, so I thought this would be a good opportunity to discuss her and sort of say, ‘This is what she left behind,'” she said.
Jennifer went on to say that the title of her book, Inheriting Magic, alludes to her mother’s capacity to make everyone she encountered feel unique.
She remarked, “I was on a very popular TV show, and when we walked into a restaurant, people couldn’t care less about me; that was my mother.” They were curious about the identity of the woman I was standing beside as she exuded joy and lightness. Everyone became friends with her. She had absolutely no strangers in the world.
“She would put up Christmas lights because she thought that kind of lifted the mood if I had a bad day or a broken heart,” Jennifer continued. “There were lights if I had severe cramps.”
In a heartfelt Instagram tribute on the eleventh anniversary of her mother’s passing, Jennifer mentioned this quality: “11 years ago, my life changed in a moment.” I believe the reason we were unable to say goodbye is that we would not have known how.
