AceShowbiz - Rick Harrison has finally broken his silence on his son's death. Shortly after it was announced that Adam Harrison died of an overdose at the age of 39, the "Pawn Stars" lead and creator took to social media to pay tribute to him.
On Friday, January 19, the 58-year-old shared on Instagram a picture of him and his late son smiling at a bar. In the caption, he wrote, "You will always be in my heart! I love you Adam."
Also honoring Adam was his older brother, Corey. Posting an old image of the two playing in a bathtub together as children, he penned, "Wax wtf I will always love you bubba."
Adam died from an overdose and his death was confirmed by Rick's representative, Laura Herlovich, saying, "Our family is extremely saddened by the death of Adam. We ask for privacy as we grieve his loss," Laura told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. Laura said she did not know where Adam died or the overdose substance.
Tributes have since poured in for Adam. Among those sending their condolences was Donald J. Trump Jr., who wrote, "I'm so sorry man." Actor Christopher Clawson said, "Condolences Rick. The fentanyl situation is out of control in this country and nobody seems to be doing anything meaningful about it. Use your platform to help change that."
Rick shares Adam and Corey with his ex-wife, Kim. He remarried his second wife, Tracy, and the couple share one son, Jake.
Adam was not on the unscripted series, which stars Rick and Corey. Adam reportedly worked at Gold & Silver Pawn prior to the series' 2009 premiere. However, he has not recently worked at the pawn shop, according to TMZ.
While Corey can be found all over Rick's Instagram page and even appears alongside his father on "Pawn Stars Do America", Adam seemed to do his own thing and shied away from the spotlight. He had an Instagram page but never posted.
