Reality television star Lauri Peterson shared this weekend that her son, Josh Waring, died March 31 at age 35.
The “Real Housevives of Orange County” alum addressed Waring’s death in an emotional Instagram post Sunday.
“It is with a shattered heart that I write this post to let you know that my sweet Josh left this earth Easter Sunday. No one can ever prepare you for this feeling of such deep loss,” Peterson wrote. “Every fiber in my body hurts. Josh fought every single day for most of his adult life, for his life, but this past Sunday, the challenge was too great.”
She continued: “Even during adult hardship, Josh continued to maintain his sense of humor, continued to be optimistic, continued to be kind to others, defended those that were unable to defend themselves and continued to love his family so so much! He received the most joy, pride and purpose through his daughter Kennady and watching her grow and thrive over the years.”
The Orange Country Register described Waring’s death as an “apparent drug overdose,” but noted that the exact cause would be later confirmed by coroner’s officials following additional tests.
