In 2019, she was diagnosed with breast cancer and was told she had years to live. During their time together, Allain and Schneider partnered together to make several films. She also worked with him as a music producer and hairstylist.
Earlier this week, Schneider posted a loving status for his late wife. He wrote “My beautiful Smile is pain-free, living in her new body alongside Jesus.” He further implored fans to “Please respect our privacy during this time of grief.
