<h2>Kaia Gerber on her bond with brother Presley</h2><p>Apart from the family statement, the 25-year-old model Kaia separately shared an Instagram post to speak about her bond with her brother. "Prez, i don’t have the words. and maybe the tiny mercy is that we don’t need them all along. words fail and words subtract and words summarize and words always lack truth. And how naive of me to believe that language could transcend grief," she wrote. "I've read all of the books and I have none of the answers. You know how much i loved being your sister. it has always been, and will forever be, my favorite thing about myself."</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
