  "account": "Supermodel Cindy Crawford expressed deep sorrow over the passing of her son, Presley Gerber, on September 20th at the age of 27. In an emotional Instagram post, she described Presley as a \"sweet, beautiful soul who loved and is loved, now and forever.\" The tribute photo accompanying the message showed the young model's face with a heart-wrenching caption. Crawford went on to say that they are proud of how Presley handled life with kindness and vulnerability. She further added that they are grateful for the love and support pouring in from people around the world who knew and loved their family. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's office is investigating the death as a possible overdose, but no foul play has been ruled out. Presley had previously shared his struggles with mental health and drug use on Instagram, often participating in 'Mental Health Mondays'. In a touching follow-up post, Crawford's daughter Kaia dedicated a heartfelt tribute to her brother, including a video of them dancing together, a photo of them near the ocean, and a heartfelt letter expressing her love and longing.",
