This was reported by the New York Times. that authorities were called around 3:40 pm on Sunday when Romy went to her parents' house to check on them after she was contacted by a massage therapist who was unable to gain access to the house. When Romy arrived, she allegedly discovered her father's body and “escaped”, not knowing that Michel was also dead inside the house.
A source close to the family told the Times that Romy learned of her mother's death when she was later told by a paramedic.
