Bubbly newscaster Neena Pacholke killed herself after her fiancé broke up with her just seven weeks before they were due to marry, according to report.
The split came after a tumultuous two-year romance filled with fights, heavy drinking and rumors of affairs.
Neena even told one friend she returned to the house she shared with fiancé Kyle Haase and found an unfamiliar pair of panties, friends say.
Pacholke was found dead on Saturday in the $390,000 home she and Haase had just bought in Wausau, Wisconsin. Police confirmed on Friday that she had killed herself.
A worried friend had called 911 and asked police to do a welfare check, but by the time they got there, it was too late.
Pacholke, 27, and Haase, 38, had closed on the house on July 27 – exactly one month before she took her life there.
When contacted by DailyMail.com, Haase immediately hung up. He did not answer follow-up calls or respond to text messages.
Pacholke’s friends say she always appeared more invested in her relationship with the father-of-two than he was.
‘They were always arguing, and it seemed like Neena was more in love with Kyle that he was with her,’ one friend said.
Neena had also become suspicious that Kyle, who worked as a commercial sales manager at Imperial Industries may have hooked up with a former lover.
One friend said that just a few weeks ago Kyle showed a friend a nude picture that a former mistress had sent him, and he told the friend, ‘Look at her boobs and a**, I wish Neena’s body looked like that.
‘I don’t even want to go home to Neena,’ he added. ‘The only thing I get from her is a tax break because she only makes $47,000 a year?’
‘She had so many people here to talk to. She talked to people, but she didn’t want anybody to know how she was hurting so she didn’t talk until it got so bad.’
On Sunday, September 4, there is a going to be a celebration of life for Neena at a local Church in the Wausau area.
