#SHOWBIZ: Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber 'tried everything' to save son Presley before death

Supermodel Cindy Crawford and husband Rande Gerber spared no effort in their desperate attempts to help their 27-year-old son Presley before his untimely death on September 20, according to sources. The young man's life had ended following a suspected drug overdose and subsequent cardiac arrest at a rehab facility, as reported by Los Angeles County Medical Examiner records and Santa Monica police logs. Los Angeles County authorities are currently conducting an investigation, with a cause of death pending.

Insiders revealed that the couple had been guiding Presley through various treatment methods for years, including inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation, therapy, alternative therapies, and round-the-clock sober coaches. Crawford and Gerber had also actively supported their son's modeling and photography careers. Though Presley experienced a brief period of sobriety last winter, his health had rapidly declined over the past year.

A source close to Crawford stated that the couple had never lost hope, and now they are left wondering if more could have been done. The family, who are currently seeking privacy, is described as devastated by the sudden loss of their beloved son. Kaia, Presley's 25-year-old sister, is receiving constant support from loved ones as she mourns the sudden death of her brother, whom she had openly discussed in an interview just weeks before his passing.

During his last public appearance alongside his parents at a June launch event, Presley candidly reflected on his mental health journey and struggles with substance abuse, stating, "The most free I felt was when I was finally honest with myself."
