The friends of a renowned New York City art dealer who was brutally murdered in Brazil have expressed their shock as details of his turbulent lifestyle emerged.
Brent Sikkema, 75, was found stabbed to death in his Rio de Janeiro home on January 15. His Cuban former bodyguard Alejandro Triana Prevez (pictured), 30, has been accused of his murder.
It has since emerged that Sikkema (pictured right), the owner Sikkema Jenkins & Co in Chelsea, was going though a bitter divorce battle with his Cuban husband Daniel Garcia Carrera (pictured left), a 53-year-old former escort with whom he shared a son.
