Ian Alexander, Jr And Regina King: Happier Times
According to bet.com, acclaimed actress/director Regina King is currently experiencing a parent’s worst nightmare. Her only child with her ex-husband record producer Ian Alexander, Sr. has died by suicide. Their son, Ian Alexander, Jr., who worked as a DJ, had just celebrated his 26th birthday on January 19.
Gossip blog LoveBScott was the first to report the news, People.com then confirmed the news, which broke online late Friday, January 21 after receiving a statement from King which reads,
Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian. 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.
Throughout the years, King would often walk the red carpet with her son standing right by her side. After ending her marriage in 2007, King focused her role as a single mother, giving Alexander Jr. her undivided attention and support. It was a mutual love and adoration. In honor of his mother’s 50th birthday, Alexander, Jr posted a tribute on Instagram that wrote,
To have you as a 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, you the real superhero. Love you mom. This day and everyday YO DAY!!
I send my prayers and condolences to Regina and her family at this trying time.
