Presley Gerber died at age 27 on Sept. 20 inside a bedroom at a halfway house, according to confirmed reports. The model, son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, was subsequently cremated, and his parents plan to keep his ashes in their home.
Tragedy at a Santa Monica Halfway House
Santa Monica police were dispatched to the facility on Sept. 20 following a call for a cardiac arrest. The police department confirmed an ongoing investigation but stated there was no indication of foul play at the scene.
The Investigation and Funeral Arrangements
The cause of death remains undetermined as the medical examiner awaits final test results. TMZ reported that the model’s death certificate indicates he was cremated days after his death, and the family is planning a small funeral this week at either Forest Lawn or Malibu Presbyterian Church.
Facility Background and Public Scrutiny
Dr. Reza Nabavi reportedly owns the facility where Gerber was found dead. Public records show Dr. Nabavi was arrested in 2002 on narcotics charges and later sentenced to probation.
Candid Conversations on Mental Health
Gerber previously discussed his mental health journey on Instagram through a series called Mental Health Mondays. His sister, Kaia Gerber, spoke about his experiences with addiction in an August interview with Vogue.
When something like that happens in a family, it kind of levels everyone.
