Three members of the Putman family, who starred in TLC’s Meet The Putmans, have died, and several others are injured, after a car crash.

In an Instagram post shared on the family’s account on Saturday, Sept. 27, family member Isabelle revealed that “Papa” Bill Putman, Neenee and Aunt Megan died in a “tragic car accident.”

She added that “Uncle Blake, Lulu, Alena, Noah and Gia” were injured and remain in the hospital. “We are asking for complete healing and strength for each of them,” the Putman family member wrote.

“My entire family — Papa, Neenee, Billy, Jen, Brandon, Kacie, Blake, Megan, Jamie, Blair, myself (Isabelle), Abby, Emma, Addison, Bella, Mercy, Gabby, Noah, Mya, Nova, Lulu, Alena, Gia, Jonah, Eli, Solomon, Uriah, Samson, Luke, and Anna — all proclaim that Jesus Christ is our Lord and Savior. He is our hope, our peace, and our salvation. Even in this time of heartbreak, we rest in knowing that God is in control,” Isabella continued.
