Lea Michele shared a thoughtful gesture to acknowledge the day Cory Monteith passed away.
The Glee starlet, 34, published an Instagram Story on Tuesday, July 13 to honor the 8th anniversary of Cory’s death. She published a black and white picture of Cory waving to an audience onstage in his character Finn Hudson’s university football coat.
Cory unfortunately passed away on July 13, 2013 of an unintentional drug overdose. He was 31 years of ages when he passed, and had actually acted in 4 seasons of Glee together with Lea, who was his sweetheart at the time of his death.
Lea’s newest homage to Cory is far from her very first. In 2016, the star got a tattoo of the number 5 in honor of Finn’s football number on Glee.
She discussed losing him and the sorrow that was available in that after-effects on The Ellen DeGeneres Show in 2013. Lea revealed, “There is an empowerment that comes with grief—at some point you find it. It’s very hard but you will find it, and I think at a certain point you can choose to sort of fall from this or you can choose to rise.”
