Hallmark star chokes back tears after wife killed and young child injured in horrifying attack

A Hallmark star has bravely addressed a public gathering just days after his costume designer wife was killed when an Audi SUV rammed into a crowd of festival goers.

Noel Johansen, who is a British citizen and previously lived in London, fought back tears as he spoke about wife Jenifer Darbellay, 50, at the vigil in Vancouver, Canada, for the victims who were killed when a mentally ill driver ploughed into crowds gathered for a festival to honor Filipino heritage.

Eleven were people were killed and dozens were injured after an SUV rammed through a packed street festival marking Lapu Lapu Day at about 8pm on Saturday.
