It will no doubt be a challenging holiday season for the parents, whose eldest daughter Stephanie Bongiovi had a shocking scare exactly two weeks ago. The Hamilton College sophomore suffered a heroin overdose on Nov. 14 but avoided misdemeanor charges after authorities discovered illegal substances in her dorm room; her college pal Ian S. Grant was also initially arrested before police dropped all charges due to a recently amended state law.

"This tragedy was something that I had to face too so we'll get through it," the "Livin' on a Prayer" singer, 50, told Fox 11 on Nov. 20 in his first comments about the incident. "And people's warm wishes for my family and I have been really reassuring. So, we're good."

He and Hurley "tried to keep his kids' upbringing as normal as possible," a source recently told Us. (The couple are also parents to kids Jesse, Romeo and Jacob.)

"This was a very sad shock," adds the source.
