His cause of death has not yet been released and officials are awaiting the results of an autopsy. Presley Gerber , the model and son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, has died at 27. Presley died on Sunday, September 20, at a rehabilitation facility, according to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner.
In May 2026, he joined his mother, father Rande Gerber and sister Kaia Gerber at the launch of Kaia’s Re/Done collection and campaign film Short/Cuts. “Every psychiatrist I’ve had—and I’ve had, like, 15—they’re all like, ‘Here’s 20 medications. Presley was last seen in public with his family just a few months before his death. Take this if you feel like this, take this as needed. And I’m like, ‘No, don’t give me that much leeway. She also reflected on Presley’s decision to be open about his life, despite their family traditionally keeping personal matters private.
He also spoke about his experiences with psychiatrists and said he wanted more direction while trying to figure out the right treatment. I need some direction,’” he had said in an Instagram video. “My parents for most of our lives were very, very private and didn’t share anything — and now we have this absolute teacher, my brother, who says, ‘I’m gonna be very human for everyone. There’s only so much you can hide from the world,” she said.
Presley built a modelling career of his own
Growing up as Cindy Crawford’s son meant Presley was familiar with the fashion industry from an early age, but he admitted that modelling did not always come naturally to him. “That’s all. I was like, ‘Please don’t trip, just make it to the end.’ . . . I get sidetracked really easily, so if I just think about what I’m doing, then I can do it better”.
In a 2016 interview with W magazine, he spoke about the nerves that came with walking the runway.
