Brian Austin Green Texted A Sweet Message To Luke Perry After He Died, Hoping He’d Text Back
We all deal with loss in various ways, but Brian Austin Green’s strategy is probably the sweetest kind.
Brian spoke out for the first time about the devastating death of his friend and former Beverly Hills, 90210 costar Luke Perry.
“Luke was a special guy. I’m still mourning over it, so there’s a part of me that’s kind of shocked that I’m speaking about Luke this way,” he said during a recent episode of his podcast. “We all knew that at some point we’d have to deal with losing cast members and friends, but not this soon. Not at 52. Not in such an abrupt way.”
Brian continued, “Luke was one of those people nobody had a bad story about. He was just a great guy. And he was Luke no matter where you saw him, no matter when you saw him, no matter what he was going through. He was a rock.”
Brian also revealed a heartbreaking thing he did after hearing news of Luke’s death: “I texted him after he passed, knowing obviously that he can’t text me back but on some level, hoping that he would text me back, or that he was out there somewhere.”
“And I know he is. I know he’s looking down and I know he’s smiling.”
