“We’re doing OK but we’re ‘straaaaaanded in Aspen,’ She continued, adding: “#DramaticDivaPlace (I know, we could be in a lot worse places) but the truth is as long as we’re together, we’re OK. I’m not trying to make light out of the situation because it’s a serious moment that’s very tough on all of us so please keep us and our family in your prayers.”
