Jennifer Hudson's Dreamgirls co-star is devastated about what happened to the Oscar winner's family.

"I love her to death, and I know that she's going through this - and my thoughts and prayers are with her, of course," Sharon Leal told Usmagazine.com at the Soul Men premiere in NYC Tuesday.

"I can't even imagine what she must be going through," Leal added. "But she is a beautiful person, and I hope that there's enough friends and support and people to go through it with her."

Leal says she can't believe Hudson's mother, brother and 7-year-old nephew, Julian, were shot to death inside their south side Chicago home.

"It's unimaginable," she said. "I don't know what to say."

On Tuesday, the Chicago Cook County medical examiner's office announced Julian died from multiple gunshot wounds.

The announcement follows an autopsy on Julian's body, which was found in the back of an SUV Monday.

While no one has been charged in the slayings, police are eyeing William Balfour - ex-husband to Hudson's sister, Julia - as a person of interest.
