Ridinger, who founded the multi-level marketing company with his wife in 1992, was considered a popular socialite with an army of A-list friends who he attended charity galas and events with.

At the time of his sudden passing, with his cause of death listed as a pulmonary embolism, wife Loren said the pair were enjoying their first holiday in three years.

“In just a second – he was gone. A moment,” Loren wrote on Facebook.
