Presley Gerber Died in Rehab Facility, Medical Examiner Confirms

And his family proved they had his back as he sought the help he needed.

“You are a warrior!” Cindy commented at the time. “Walked thru the fire to find yourself! So proud!” 

Meanwhile, Rande commented, “I’m so proud of you and your courage. Facing what’s hard takes real strength and watching you find your way back to yourself is everything. I love you so much” before Kaia chimed in that she was “so damn proud” of her brother. 

Previously, Presley shared deeper insight into his mental health journey. 

“I've had a lot of loss in many different forms recently,” he said in a Dec. 2025 Instagram video. "That is not an excuse, but it's the reason—or part of—why I am where I'm at now."

He went on to share the medications he'd been taking, noting he didn’t “have as much direction” on his dosages as he would like.

“Every psychiatrist I've had—and I've had, like, 15—they're all like, ‘Here's 20 medications,’” he recalled. “‘Take this if you feel like this, take this as needed.' And I'm like, ‘No, don't give me that much leeway. I need some direction.’”

He was also open about wanting to make a change in his inner circle.

“I've grown up in Hollywood, and there's a lot of people around that I love to death,” Presley said, “but right now, I try not to be around them.”

And just last month, Kaia, 25, commended her brother for being “this absolute teacher” for their “very, very private” parents when it comes to speaking out about hardship. 

“My brother, who says, 'I’m gonna be very human for everyone,’” Kaia told Vogue in an interview published Aug. 11. “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."
