Duane 'Dog' Chapman Mourns Daughter Barbara Katie Who Died 1 Day before His Wedding

Duane Chapman of "Dog The Bounty Hunter" mourned his daughter, Barbara Katie, who passed on in 2006. The tragic incident happened 24-hours before he married Beth Chapman.

The picture showed Barbara holding her infant, Travis, in her arms. Under it, Duane penned down an emotional message to mark the anniversary of her death.

Despite losing her at 23 to a ghastly accident, the tv personality still referred to her as "My Barbara." He also told his fans that his daughter is in a good place, even though it was an untimely death. He wrote:

"15 years ago, my Barbara Katie went to be w/JESUS."

The affectionate remembrance moved fans, and they shared heart-melting messages via their comments. As at the time of Barbara's death, her only child, Travis Drake-Lee Chapman, was 4 years old.

Sources gathered revealed that the mother of one was with a buddy in the car, and unfortunately, both friends were killed after the vehicle swerved from the road, to hit a tree.

Sadly, the 67-year-old lost another loved one last year. His wife of more than a decade, Beth, died after battling cancer last year in June

The car was later discovered in an upside-down position. Some reports claimed that Duane's daughter had been struggling with drug and alcohol addiction.

This was ruled as the possible cause of the horrific car crash. Jeremy Stone, a Trooper hinted at the time of the incident that:

"There is no clue as to why they left the roadway. There are absolutely no skid marks on the road. they just went off the road, hit an embankment and launched."

A day after the tragedy, Duane wed his wife Beth Chapman, whom he shared two children with. It was during the wedding ceremony that the "Dog the Bounty Hunter" actor decided to share the sad news of his daughter's passing.
