The entertainment industry is mourning the sudden and violent deaths of Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, whose bodies were discovered inside their Encino home in Los Angeles. Friends, colleagues, and neighbors described the couple as generous, creative, and deeply respected figures who rarely sought the spotlight themselves.
Police were dispatched earlier this week after a welfare check was requested when the couple could not be reached. Upon arriving at the residence, officers observed signs of forced entry and possible violence near the front door. When no one responded, they entered the home and found both individuals deceased inside.
Preliminary information indicates that both victims suffered gunshot wounds. The Los Angeles Police Department has launched a full investigation and is treating the case as a possible double homicide. No suspects or motives have been publicly identified as authorities continue to gather evidence.
News of the deaths sent shockwaves through the music and television communities. Tributes quickly flooded social media, highlighting Robin Kaye’s quiet influence as a music supervisor on American Idol and her reputation as a mentor and advocate for others. As the investigation unfolds, those who knew the couple are left grappling with loss—remembering not how they died, but how deeply they impacted the lives around them.
