Presley Gerber’s Death: He Would Reportedly Travel with Someone 24/7 Before His Passing
A source told the outlet that Presley was dealing with “the full gamut” around the time of his death. “He was such a kind person, but he grew up in that strange Malibu world where it’s very easy to fall into drugs and drinking as you are growing up,” the source claimed.
The insider added that although the lifestyle could appear enviable from the outside, it could also feel isolating and make substances an easier temptation. Presley began modeling as a teenager, following his supermodel mother and later working in the same industry as his younger sister, Kaia Gerber. He was Cindy and Rande’s only son.
His Family Is Now Asking for Privacy
As investigators continue piecing together the final hours of Presley’s life, his family has kept its public statement brief. A representative for Cindy, Rande and Kaia confirmed his death and said the family was asking for privacy during this “very difficult and painful time.” For now, several of the biggest questions remain unanswered.

Someone Had Reportedly Been a Constant Presence
Against that backdrop, another detail about the months before Presley’s death has now emerged. According to people with direct knowledge of the situation, Presley reportedly had someone who had become extremely present in his day-to-day life. This was apparently not an occasional arrangement, either.
The person frequently traveled with Presley and was said to provide support 24 hours a day, seven days a week during the final several months of the model’s life. That makes one unanswered question particularly striking: Was this person with Presley when the fatal medical emergency occurred? For now, that remains uncertain.
It is also unclear whether the person was physically with Presley at the facility at the moment he died or had checked in with him the night before.
