Personal Life
Alicia reportedly dated musician Ben Folds in 2012 after his fourth marriage ended, and they collaborated on the theme song to Alicia’s 2013 film “Cold Turkey” as well as the album “Revisionary History.” Witt’s parents were found dead in their home in Worcester on December 20, 2021. Alicia said of the tragedy, “After not hearing back from my parents for several days, I reached out to a cousin who lives close to my parents to check on them. Sadly, the outcome was unimaginable. I ask for some privacy at this time to grieve and to wrap my head around this turn of events, and this surreal loss.” As of this writing, no cause of death has been announced, but the Worcester newspaper “Telegram & Gazette” reported that “freezing temperatures, a malfunctioning furnace, a temporary space heater and a home in need of repairs may have contributed to the deaths.”
