Presley Gerber’s Final Rehab Video Emerges as Family Asks for Privacy

A video reportedly filmed by Presley Gerber inside a Santa Monica rehabilitation facility the night before his death has emerged, offering a brief glimpse into the 27-year-old model’s final hours.

Gerber, the only son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, died on September 20, 2026, at a rehabilitation facility in Santa Monica, California. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed his death, while Santa Monica police said they were investigating a suspected overdose. Authorities have said there was no indication of foul play.

His official cause and manner of death have not yet been finalized.

Video Captures Gerber Inside the Facility

The newly surfaced footage was reportedly recorded on Saturday night, shortly after Gerber arrived at the facility.

According to Page Six, the video shows Gerber filming himself before turning the camera toward his living quarters. The footage also captures a balcony overlooking the property and the surrounding Los Angeles area.

The video was reportedly recorded only hours before emergency responders were called to the facility the following morning.

However, the footage does not establish what happened to Gerber overnight or what ultimately caused his death.

An autopsy has already been completed, but the Medical Examiner is awaiting additional toxicology testing before issuing a final determination. Until those results are released, claims about a specific substance or definitive cause of death remain unconfirmed.

Family Continues to Ask for Privacy

Following Gerber’s death, a representative for Cindy Crawford, Rande Gerber and Kaia Gerber said the family was asking for privacy during what they described as an extremely difficult and painful period.

The family has continued to keep public comments about the loss limited.

People has reported that Gerber’s family hopes to hold a small and private memorial service. Malibu has reportedly been considered as a possible location, reflecting Gerber’s connection to the ocean and surfing.

Friends and people who knew him have also continued to share tributes following his death.

Gerber Had Spoken Openly About Addiction and Mental Health

Before his death, Gerber had publicly discussed his struggles with mental health and substance use.

In interviews and social-media posts, he spoke about depression, recovery and the challenges that had affected his life. He also used his platform to discuss mental-health awareness and encourage others to seek help.

His sister, Kaia Gerber, had also spoken publicly about her brother’s struggles in the months before his death. In an August interview with Vogue, she described the family’s experience dealing with his long-running addiction issues and the impact they had on the family.

Gerber had also shared posts about recovery and treatment, including efforts to change his lifestyle and address his mental health.

Investigation Remains Ongoing

The circumstances surrounding Gerber’s death remain under investigation.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner has not yet released a final cause of death, while authorities continue examining the circumstances surrounding the suspected overdose.

The emergence of the final video has renewed public interest in Gerber’s last hours, but the footage itself does not provide an explanation for his death.

For now, his family is focusing on grieving privately and remembering Gerber away from the intense public attention surrounding his final days.

The final medical findings are expected to provide more information once the remaining testing is complete.
