His father Rande Gerber, a well-known businessman, co-founded the Casamigos tequila brand with George Clooney.
In recent years, Gerber had spoken openly about his mental health challenges and drug use.
In 2023, he told the Studio 22 podcast: “Having struggled with mental health, depression and some other things that come along with that, I think that whether I help one person or a hundred people get out of that place that I was in at one point in my life, that’s all I need to do.”
And in this month’s American Vogue, external, Kaia discussed her brother’s struggles with addiction. She said: “When something like that happens in a family, it kind of levels everyone.
“I think that’s also why I started to self-identify as the easy one and never wanted to ask for help.”
She added: “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. And trying to put a lid on something just makes the person feel like you’re ashamed of them.”
