Story summary

Presley Gerber, 27, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber, died Sunday at a rehab facility in Los Angeles. The cause of death has not been revealed by the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner. Presley was known for his candid discussions about mental health struggles and substance abuse issues, including a 2019 DUI arrest that led to three years of probation. His sister, model Kaia Gerber, had recently spoken to Vogue about her brother’s public battle with addiction, saying it made her want to be the "easy" child who didn't ask for help. The family has asked for privacy during this difficult time.
