David also tweeted a photo of Kate attending one of his book signings, writing, "Katy at my book signing. I love this pic of her. So pretty. I don't think everyone knew how f*cking funny she was..."

In a previous statement to the New York Daily News, Kate's family said "We are all devastated by today’s tragedy. We loved Kate dearly and will miss her terribly. We would ask that our privacy be respected as we grieve during this very difficult time."

Spade is survived by her husband Andy and their 13-year-old daughter Frances Beatrix Spade.
