Presley Gerber and Lexi Wood dated in late 2022 after having known each other as friends for years. They went official on Instagram on November 1, 2022, with photos and videos of kissing and beach moments, as reported by E! News. They had been seen together at the Casamigos Halloween Party on October 28, 2022.
Coverage stated they met through a mutual friend about seven years earlier. The relationship ended by December 2022, about a month after they made it public.
Presley Gerber, son of Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, died at 27 on September 20, 2026, at a rehab facility in Los Angeles County. The cause of death was not listed. Crawford's publicist confirmed the news to CNN and said the family was asking for privacy.
As reported by People magazine, Lexi Wood explained in an Instagram Q&A why they shared the romance publicly.
"I always told you guys that when I was in love that I would share it and we've arrived. Your girl is in love with this guy."
She also captioned a November 1, 2022, post "if you didn't already know, I'm in love." Presley Gerber wrote on her post, "My angel. I love you," and she answered, "love you baby."
As reported by People magazine, in the same Q&A, Gerber said he had felt that way from the start.
"I have been in love with her since the day I laid eyes on her."
Wood said the beginning felt "funny" because they started as friends, and she added that it took less than a week after their first date for him to ask to move the relationship forward. He captioned his November 1 post "Guys I did it…" over a video of them kissing set to audio about finding the person who made him happiest.
