George and Amal Clooney Support Cindy Crawford After Son’s Death

The Clooneys’ involvement extends beyond traditional social obligations, as George Clooney shares a decades-long friendship with Rande Gerber, with whom he co-founded the Casamigos tequila brand. Sources close to the family report that the actor, long known to the Gerber children as "Uncle George," has taken an active role in managing funeral arrangements and providing emotional stability. His connection to Presley was deep-rooted; he frequently offered guidance during the young man’s well-documented struggles with addiction and mental health, including providing counsel following a 2018 DUI charge.

Presley Gerber died on September 20 at a rehab facility in Los Angeles after suffering cardiac arrest. Despite his parents’ exhaustive efforts to assist him—which included professional support and a 24/7 sober coach—the 27-year-old had reportedly expressed feelings of aimlessness in his final months. Insiders close to the family emphasize that Crawford and Gerber provided unwavering support throughout his recovery journey, making the loss particularly devastating. As the investigation into his passing continues, the Clooneys remain in Los Angeles to ensure their friends are not left to face the loss in isolation.
