Regina King speaks out for the first time since the passing of her son, Ian.

We previously reported that King’s son, Ian, was 26 at the time of his passing. “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.” Reports claim that Ian died by suicide and was King’s only son.

In a new Instagram post Regina King speaks about Ian heavenly birthday. She writes, "January 19th is Ian’s Worthday. As we still process his physical absence, we celebrate his presence. We are all in different places on the planet…so is Ian.

The post continues, "his spirit is the thread that connects us. Of course, orange is your favorite color…Its the fire and the calm. I see you in everything I breath. My absolute favorite thing about myself is being ….Regina the mother of Ian the GodKing. Continue to shine bright, my guiding light."

May he continue to rest in peace.
