DMX ’s fiancée, Desiree Lindstrom, opened up about her life both with and without the late rapper, who passed away after suffering from a massive cardiac arrest last month. In a sit-down, exclusive interview with FOX 5 New York, Lindstrom shared how she’s been coping with her painful and tremendous loss. “He was my best friend, he was all I had, he was my everything, he was my world," she recounted. “I lived around him, so it has been very, very, very hard.” Lindstrom and DMX, born Earl Simmons, met ten years ago in Arizona. Their decade-long relationship began at a Buffalo Wild Wings, where the couple had their first date.
