Presley Gerber, the 27-year-old son of supermodel Cindy Crawford and businessman Rande Gerber, has passed away at a rehab facility, as confirmed by a family spokesperson to CBS LA. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner’s Office reported his death on Sunday, though the cause has not been disclosed. The family has requested privacy during this challenging time. Presley followed in his mother’s footsteps as a model, alongside his sister, Kaia Gerber, who is also an actor. His father is known for co-founding the Casamigos tequila brand with George Clooney. In 2018, Presley and his mother recreated her famous 1992 Pepsi ad for the Super Bowl, a moment Cindy Crawford fondly recalled. This story is still developing, and further details are awaited.
