Rick Harrison of PAWN Stars has spoken out after his son died tragically from an overdose.
Yesterday, the 39-year-old man was found passed out in Las Vegas. On Friday, his family learned the sad news.
After TMZ reported the news, Rick posted a picture of his son Adam Harrison on Instagram on Friday to let fans know that he had died.
While at a restaurant, the Pawn Stars star smiled and posed with his son.
Adam was seen with a big smile on his face, and they were both wearing casual clothes.
“I will always love you!” Rick wrote, “I love you Adam,” under the picture and added a broken heart emoji.
A lot of fans of the star wrote sad comments for Rick and his family in the comments.
“My condolences to you and your family, a big hug from the chile,” said a fan.
“R.I.P., my condolences to you and your family,” said someone else.
“Rest in peace. This is not something that any parent should have to go through! God bless you and give you the strength to get through this! “Our hearts are with You,” said a third.
“We’re very sorry for your loss. “Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family,” said a fourth.
VERY SAD NEWS
Not only did Rick not say anything else, but a rep told TMZ that Adam died of an overdose and that his family found out on Friday.
It was also reported that the Las Vegas Metro PD is looking into the case, but the exact details of how he died have not been made public.
Rick has two kids. Adam was one of them. His first child with his first wife is a son named Corey, 40.
ADAM’S LIFE
Rick also has a son named Jake from a previous marriage.
Adam didn’t like being the center of attention very often, but he may have worked with his dad at the Gold and Silver Pawn Shop in Nevada.
After a while on the job, though, he decided it wasn’t right for him.
Aside from the TV pawn shop, not much is known about Adam’s personal or professional life. TMZ said he might have been working as a plumber or in another local trade.
