Howard Stern has been consoling his wife, Beth Ostrosky Stern, over the loss of their beloved cat, Charlie Chunk.

The Sterns, who adopted Charlie several years ago from the North Shore Animal League shelter, had been caring for their beloved cat all week following the removal of a cancerous mass from his spleen.

Charlie died suddenly on Saturday, but the same day, Beth put up a brave front at a party celebrating her Social Life Magazine cover spread, hosted by publisher Justin Mitchell.

Beth said of Charlie’s death, “I’m too upset to talk about it.”

The animal-adoption advocate mixed with guests such as Devorah Rose, Christine Montanti, attorney Nancy Chemtob and Andrea Correale, whose Elegant Affairs catered the party.
