LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: ABC's 'The Golden Bachelor' contestant Faith Martin's ex-husband was the late Brett Martin, a nuclear chemical operator whose life was tragically cut short at 61. He died at his Benton City home on August 13, 2022.
Brett and Faith had been married for twenty years before they split. According to the US Sun, Brett had accidentally fallen into a 41-inch "deep outdoor window well" while he was speaking to certain family members.
Brett initially asked his family members not to worry and didn't immediately ask for help. However, he eventually started facing breathing difficulties and after a while, fell unconscious and seemed to be "snoring".
Brett's body was recovered after the fire department arrived on the scene.
According to reports, Brett was a smoker. His death was ruled an accident, with the exact cause of death being "positional asphyxia". His body was subsequently cremated at a local funeral home.
The memorial event was later organized in Brett's honor by his sons Brenden and Nick. Faith was invited to the event as one of the speakers and reminisced about her fond memories with her late ex-husband.
