Unsurprising.
“We are in an overspeed condition descending 20,000 feet per minute,” the pilot radioed.
When an aircraft is overspeed, it’s going faster than designed and that exerts extra force on the parts that stick out (like wings and control surfaces). Too much overspeed and of course parts start to break off. That doesn’t mean those parts had anything to do with the original cause of the descent (which seems like ice and weather).
There’s nothing new to report until the passenger list is disclosed or the crash investigation is concluded, this is just a nothing headline looking for eyeballs.
Edit: Here’s the single frame before impact from the dashcam video that captured the crash. Looks like no wings by that point. Ok sorry wings are just disguised.

It was only a few years ago that Disneyland overhauled Splash Mountain to be themed around The Princess and The Frog instead of Song of the South, even though they did their damndest for decades to make it difficult to obtain the movie.
