Presley Gerber Dies at 27 of Suspected Overdose

Presley Gerber, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford and entrepreneur Rande Gerber, has died at the age of 27. His death in Santa Monica, California, on Sunday is being investigated as a suspected overdose.

Gerber had publicly spoken about his struggles, including a difficult period as a teenager that he found hard to overcome. Despite efforts to find his footing, he ultimately succumbed to what is believed to be an overdose.

He embarked on a modeling career at a young age, becoming a prominent figure in the fashion industry. By 2018, he was walking in major fashion shows, including Prabal Gurung's during New York Fashion Week.

His modeling career began early, with early jobs for Calvin Klein and Dolce & Gabbana when he was just 15. A source indicated that Gerber had aspirations beyond modeling, including a desire to become a real estate agent. However, his public image, including tattoos, was seen as a potential obstacle to such pursuits.

The last public photographs of Gerber were taken on August 5 in Los Angeles, showing a noticeable change in his appearance.

Presley Gerber's passing adds to a series of high-profile deaths linked to drug-related issues.
