I’m very sad news, it’s is being reported exclusively by B.Scott that Regina King’s Son, Ian Alexander Jr., took his life at just 26 yrs old.
The details are scarce but Regina confirmed the news with a People in a Statement.
Read below via People:
“Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian,” King said in a statement to People.
“He is such a bright light who cared so deeply about the happiness of others. Our family asks for respectful consideration during this private time. Thank you.
King’s son worked as a disc jockey. His father, Ian Alexander Sr., is a record producer and King’s ex-husband, according to People.
The couple had separated in 2007 and King raised her son as a single parent, the report said.
His last post on Instagram was promotion he had for a show on the 28th.
He also recently celebrated his moms birthday!
He wrote:
@desdunemjv – Happy birthday to my co, so extremely proud of you and inspired by your love, artistry, and gangsta!
To be able to watch you take this lifetime by its neck and make it yours is something i will forever be grateful for.
But to have you as my mother is the greatest gift I could ask for. To be all that you are while always having the time to be there, love and support me unconditionally is truly remarkable.
The whole marvel universe ain’t got shit on you, your the real superhero! Love you mom! This day and everyday YO DAY!!
Our sincere condolences go out to the family.
