Reese Witherspoon's father hospitalised after poolside incident in Nashville: Report
"Our family is devastated at the deepest level by the loss of Ian," the actress said in a statement published by PEOPLE. She added, "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."
A Los Angeles County Coroner spokesperson later confirmed that Ian's death has been officially ruled a suicide.
Ian was King's only child. He was a deejay by profession.
Despite her growing success as an actor and director, King said at the time that Ian was her biggest source of pride. After separating from Ian's father in 2007 after nine years of marriage, King admitted being a single parent wasn't always easy, but that nothing is stronger than her love for her son.
A week prior to his death, Ian spoke about the drawbacks of social media."I don't think Instagram is healthy for me," he wrote in a tweet.
