Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber were seen walking hand in hand along Zuma Beach in Malibu, a subdued outing that came three weeks after their son Presley's death at 27 at a Santa Monica rehab facility in a suspected overdose. The couple wore baseball caps and sunglasses as they kept a low profile, appearing the day after close friend George Clooney spoke publicly about the loss for the first time at the Albies awards ceremony in London.

Clooney, who reportedly regarded Presley as a 'second son', said: 'I don't think we're even in the position of being able to talk about it.'

Presley died on September 20 after going into cardiac arrest at the Resolutions Living facility, with police investigating a possible overdose.

In December 2025, Presley had written openly about his use of opiates, benzodiazepines, antidepressants and ketamine during his struggle with addiction, saying he wanted others to know 'someone else is going through it.'
