Allan Edgar was stabbed in the neck by burglars who were raiding his home in St Lucia.
The 78-year-old, who is Defoe's first cousin twice removed, is thought to have disturbed the two thieves after he returned home from a bar. He was discovered the next morning in a pool of blood, according to the Daily Star's report.
Detectives on the Caribbean island have confirmed that two men are helping them with their enquiries.
Defoe said: "I am shocked and saddened by the tragic news of my cousin’s murder in the close-knit town which my family is from in St Lucia."
The 29-year-old is still coming to terms with the killing of his brother, Jade, who died two years ago after being punched to the ground during a row in the street.
"I want to again highlight the desperate need for us to pull together - the world over - to tackle knife crime and teach everyone how sacred a life is," he added.
