Gerber had been open about his struggles with mental health and substance abuse, speaking candidly about treatment after being charged with a DUI in 2019. He had a series of videos called “Mental Health Mondays” in 2024.
Last month, Kaia Gerber referenced her brother’s public battle with addiction in an interview with Vogue.
“When something like that happens in a family, it kind of levels everyone,” she told the publication. “I think that’s also why I started to self-identify as the easy one and never wanted to ask for help. Because it felt like too much to have two children who were needing.” As she commended her brother for speaking out.

“My parents for most of our lives were very, very private and didn’t share anything,” Kaia added, “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.”
