James Gandolfini Died During Father-Son Trip: New Details

New details have emerged about the death of James Gandolfini and it now appears he was in the middle of a father-son trip with his teenage son Michael, according to TMZ.

The trip was intended to be both business and pleasure for the 51-year-old actor, who was to attend the Taormina Film Festival in Sicily, Italy this week. He also made time to spend some quality time with Michael, who had just graduated the eighth grade.

James‘ first wife Marcy Wudarski immediately flew to Italy to be with her son after she was told that James had died.

We send out our continued condolences to the Gandolfini family during this incredibly difficult time.
