Ben Krupinski, who has built and renovated homes for the likes of Martha Stewart and Billy Joel, and his wife Bonnie were on the private aircraft when it went down off Indian Wells Beach in Amagansett on Saturday afternoon. The married couple, who are popular among residents of the affluent New York summer destination, were in a Piper PA31 Navajo aircraft when it crashed, according to 27 East, a local Hamptons news source. The aircraft was about one mile away from the airport when it lost contact with the East Hampton Tower, the East Hampton Police Department said. The Coast Guard found two bodies on board and are desperately searching for two more that are missing in the surrounding water. Mr Krupinski's work with celebrity chef and lifestyle expert Stewart have raised eyebrows in the past.

The builder's daughter kept it to herself for a few years, she said, before revealing her suspicions to her mother, Bonnie, in March of 2013. But sharing her secret cost her, she said, because her father cut her $26,000 monthly allowance, her mother refused to speak to her, and the two of them kicked her out of her Bedform home after making the claim. Faithful or not, Mr Krupinski made a quite nice life for his family constructing the residences of the rich and famous in the Hamptons. A New York Times article from 1992 called the area 'Krupinskiland,' and described it as containing 'sprawling houses with attitude that look as if they are sprawled out on lounge chairs with a masseuse and a pina colada.' It's not yet known which of the passengers' bodies has been found. 6 10)Ben Krupinski was accused by his daughter, Laura, in March of 2013 of having an affair with Martha Stewart (pictured), after the daughter claimed to have spotted the two of them getting close on Palm Beach in Florida on a group vacation years earlier 8tampat;img id="i-6dbab37bcc496fed" class="img-share" src=' 26 1527979291599jpg" width="306" height="441" alt="Ben Krupinski was accused by his daughter, Laura, in March of 2013 of having an affair with Martha Stewart (pictured), after the daughter claimed to have spotted the two of them getting close on Palm Beach in Florida on a group vacation years earlieraamp;gt; Ben Krupinski was accused by his daughter, Laura, in March of 2013 of having an affair with Martha Stewart (pictured), after the daughter claimed to have spotted the two of them getting close on Palm Beach in Florida on a group vacation years earlier EFTA01042801 Ben Krupinski (pictured) was accused by his daughter, Laura, in March of 2013 of having an affair with Martha Stewart, after the daughter claimed to have spotted the two of them getting close on Palm Beach in Florida on a group vacation years earlier 8camp;It;img id="i-387d295a1Ofb3220" class="img-share" src="http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/newpix/20I 8/06/02/23/4CDB5BB600000578-5799191- Ben Krupinski pictured was accused by his daughter Laura in Marc-a-27 1527979303668jpg" width="306" height="441" alt="Ben Krupinski (pictured) was accused by his daughter, Laura, in March of 2013 of having an affair with Martha Stewart, after the daughter claimed to have spotted the two of them getting close on Palm Beach in Florida on a group vacation years earlier"hkamp;gt; Ben Krupinskl (pictured) was accused by his daughter.
