BBC host John Hunt has broken his silence on the triple murders of his wife and their two daughters in last week's brutal crossbow slaying.
Fellow racing commentator Matt Chapman said he's been in touch with Hunt since last week's horrific massacre, and the grieving widow recently confided in him: "He told me; 'Matty, the message I would tell everyone is you never know when it's going to be the last day you see your family,'" Chapman recalled, according to the BBC.
"The message was very clear: make the most of every day because you just don't know," he explained. "Family means more to some than others and for John, his family unit was something he absolutely adored."
Authorities allege Kyle Clifford, 26, killed Hunt's wife, Carol Hunt, 61, and their two daughters, Hannah, 28, and Louise, 25, last Tuesday evening at the family's home in Bushey, England.
Hunt's only surviving daughter, Amy, was not at the home at the time of the attack.
In a statement read by Chapman to Sky Sports Racing viewers over the weekend thanking the public for their support, Hunt praised his "magnificently inspirational" daughter for her resilience.
"Amy, my eldest daughter, has been magnificently inspirational with her control and support for me, which I am trying, trying so hard, to replicate," he said.
The alleged killer led investigators on a full-scale manhunt until he was captured at an Enfield, England, cemetery, Wednesday, confirmed police.
He remains hospitalized for injuries believed to be self-inflicted and has not yet been questioned by police, according to the Watford Observer.
Authorities have not confirmed a motive.
Meanwhile, a GoFundMe launched on behalf of Amy has raised over $72,000.
