Candice, who is the head buyer for Tenet shop in Southampton, co-founded the lifestyle blog Mama + Tata in 2016 alongside her sister Jenna Crespi. Candice also launched a fashion label called Black Iris in 2019.
Brandon had been facing several lawsuits in recent years, including a 2019 complaint in which his father Michael, who died in 2016, was alleged to have asked his assistant to forge Brandon's signature on some loan documents related to a Manhattan condo project.
