The 39-year-old Vampire Diaries star and 30-year-old Twilight actress both took to Instagram on Tuesday (June 12) to reveal the heartbreaking news that they had to say goodbye to their beloved German Shepard after a battle with cancer.
“At 12:11 PM PST this beautiful girl took her last breath. Quietly cancer had filled this amazing girl of mine and there was nothing any of us could do. I’ve never known a more incredible animal. A soul that spoke 1,000 languages. Kid, I will miss you and anyone that ever got to know you will miss you,” Ian captioned the below post of Ira.
Ian continued: “Thank you for loving me like I’ve never known. I know you’re here, your energy is here with us- I saw you playing with Neech this morning. I love you kiddo. Love, Dad.”
