Ric Flair mourns the loss of his stepson Sebastian Kidder who committed suicide at the age of 24 over the weekend.
Kidder is the son of Wendy Barlow, Flair’s long-time partner. Flair raised Kidder for 13 years while he was with Wendy Barlow. Flair, who tragically lost his son Reid at the same age, shared a message on social media to remember Kidder and encourage Barlow.
I have spent hours wondering what to say. I Can’t Imagine What Wendy and Paul are going through after hearing the news of Sebastian’s passing. They lost a son around the same age in 2013. I Know That Your Loss Will Stay With You For The Rest Of Your Lives. I still think about Reid every day of my life, just as you will continue to think about Sebastian. You can’t blame yourself, just as I blamed myself for making Reid my best friend instead of being a good parent. Sometimes we get so close to our kids that we forget they need us in many different ways. I’m Thankful For The Moments I Spent With Sebastian. I Have So Many Memories & Bonding Times With Him As He Grew! He stood tall by his mother along with the whole family- Sophia, Paris and Summer, while I was dying [Flair’s near death experience during a battle with health in 2017]. He was so unselfish to share his mother with me as I was dying. He was also present at the passing of my son Reid. He Was Multi-Talented And In Everyone’s Eyes, A Huge Success. He Will Always Be Remembered That Way. I’m so sorry! Wendy, Stay strong & don’t let anything deter you from all your successful endeavors that you have in place for the future. God Bless Both of You! Rest In Peace Sebastian. @sebastianonthemic.
Charlotte Flair has also expressed her grief over Kidder’s passing.
Barlow confirmed Kidder’s death to TMZ Sunday. She told TMZ, “I’m devastated and shocked.” “This is a serious epidemic among your young men.” Mental health …”
