The world is mourning the loss of “Glee” actress Naya Rivera whose body was recently found after drowning in Ventura County, California’s Lake Piru last week. Though fans and family members are taking the 33-year-old beauty’s death hard, perhaps no one has been more affected by Naya Rivera’s death than her ex-husband, actor Ryan Dorsey. Ryan and Naya shared a four-year-old son, Josey, whom she died reportedly trying to save in the tragic boating accident. 

Sources shared this update on Ryan Dorsey’s grieving:

“Ryan can’t imagine raising Josey without Naya. It’s the most devastating situation.”

They continued:

“Ryan has barely slept…It’s just a nightmare. Although he wasn’t with Naya, it’s Josey’s mom. Josey needs his mom.”

Ryan Dorsey and Naya Rivera were married from 2014 to 2018. Josey is their only child together. On Monday (July 13th) authorities discovered her body days after her disappearance. The source added that Ryan and Josey have been clinging to their family for support.

“Since Naya disappeared, Ryan and Josey have spent every day with Naya’s family. They are all supporting each other while also taking care of Josey.”

Our thoughts and prayers are with the family, friends, and fans of Naya Rivera.
