Singer Danny Wong, famous for hits like "You Got Me Drunk" and "Make Everyone's Heart Break," passed away at 61 from a sudden myocardial infarction at his home in Hawaii on June 2. His death has been followed by public revelations of alleged disputes involving his girlfriend, Vicky, and his family.

Vicky, who had been with Wong for 31 years but never married him, has reportedly been inconsolable since his death. Despite acknowledging that their final days together were not entirely pleasant, she expressed deep sorrow, stating she has been crying almost daily and feels she is "crying herself blind." She fondly remembers their time together, calling him "a great person."

We were together every minute, and he was a great person.

The exclusion of Vicky from Wong's funeral arrangements has led to public conflict with his family. However, sources close to the situation suggest underlying tensions existed for some time. Reports indicate that Vicky managed Wong's finances for years, and last year, she allegedly attempted to transfer his music royalty accounts to her name without his consent, leading to a significant argument between them.

Wong's passing at a relatively young age has brought these personal and financial matters to light, casting a shadow over his legacy and raising questions about the relationships within his inner circle.

I'm almost crying myself blind.
