Model Presley Gerber, the son of supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber, has died at the age of 27. He passed away on September 20. His family has not yet made a public statement, but a representative asked for privacy during what was described as a very difficult and painful time.
Tributes have since poured in from across the entertainment world, with several celebrities sharing memories of Gerber on social media.
Paris Hilton posted an emotional note on her Instagram Stories, calling him a "kind and beautiful soul." She wrote that she was struggling to accept the news and recalled the laughter and conversations they shared. "You had such a gentle heart and there was something so special about you that anyone who was lucky enough to know you could feel," she said, adding that her heart went out to his family.
Brooklyn Beckham also remembered Gerber in an Instagram Story, writing that he was "the kindest" and that he would be deeply missed.
Television personality Brody Jenner commented on Gerber's final Instagram post with the words, "Love you brother." Social media personality Chase Keith also paid his respects, writing, "Rest in peace man," alongside a broken heart emoji.
Weeks before his death, Gerber's sister, model Kaia Gerber, had spoken about his openness regarding his mental health journey. In an interview published in August, she said her parents had been very private for most of their lives, but her brother had chosen to be open and human for everyone. She noted that trying to hide something can make a person feel as though others are ashamed of them.
