Monday, September 21, 2026 -Presley Gerber, the model son of American supermodel Cindy Crawford, has d!ed at just 27 following years of struggle with drugs, panic attacks, and mental health.
The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed that
Presley died on Sunday, September 20, at a rehab facility. His cause of
de@th was not revealed.
His death comes just weeks after his younger sister Kaia
Gerber, 25, opened up about the enormous toll her brother's struggles had taken
on their famous family, admitting the turmoil had effectively 'leveled
everyone.'
'When something like that happens in a family, it kind of levels everyone,' she told Vogue.
A rep for Crawford said, 'The family is asking for privacy
during this very difficult and painful time.'
Presley started modeling at age 15 and was featured in
campaigns for fashion labels such as Dolce & Gabbana and Calvin
Klein.
Presley was signed to IMG Models and appeared in a 2018
Pepsi ad with his mother.
He also struggled with mental health at a young age and was arrested for driving under the influence in 2019.
Last November, Presley revealed he had taken a step back
from social media to 'take care of my own mental health for a bit.'
One month later, he opened up about his personal life in a
candid social media video. He started sharing 'Mental Health Mondays' videos on
his Instagram. In one, he listed the medication he takes for 'night
terrors' and 'panic attacks.'
'I feel like honesty is the best policy,' he began before
sharing that he was on 1mg of Buprenorphine – used to treat both pain and
opioid use disorders – twice a day.
Presley's parents are Cindy Crawford, 60, and nightlife
entrepreneur Rande Gerber, 64.
