Presley Gerber, the 27-year-old model and son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, died September 20 at a rehab facility in Santa Monica, California. Now his ex-girlfriend Cameron Rorrison, who dated him from 2018 to 2020, is opening up about the person she knew.
In an Instagram Stories post, Rorrison called him“an angel in this life and will be in the next.”She praised his wide open heart, his inspiring compassion, and his unique ability to make every person feel brilliant and important. Two of his other exes, Charlotte D’Alessio and Lexi Wood, shared tributes too, remembering him as one of the kindest, most open, loving and courageous people they’d known.
Sources say Presley entered rehab because he knew he needed help and wanted to be free of his addictions. His body has been cremated, and his ashes will be kept at his parents’Malibu home. His sister, Kaia Gerber, is said to be taking the loss very hard.
