Gone far too soon.
Sharon Stone posted a beautiful dedication post on Instagram Monday, Aug. 30 to her nearly 1-year-old nephew River, who tragically died after suffering organ failure days prior. She captioned the video, “River William Stone Sept. 8, 2020 – Aug. 30, 2021.” In it, she shared a video from River’s short life, featuring her playing with her sweet, smiling nephew. Sharon also posted a photo featuring his big blue eyes.
Support flooded in for the star as fans and colleagues expressed their condolences to Sharon and her family.
“This breaks my heart,” actor Leslie Jordan commented. “I’m in pieces right now.” Sean Hayes added, “Ugh. I’m sitting here in tears. I’m so sorry, Sharon. What a beautiful boy. Sending all my love to you and your family.”
