Anderson Cooper Shares Tribute to Mom Gloria Vanderbilt After Her Death

Anderson Cooper‘s mom Gloria Vanderbilt passed away at the age of 95 on Monday (June 17) and he posted a tribute on his Instagram account moments ago.

“In the end, after all else is stripped away, there is only love. My mom believed in love more than anyone. It was her guide, her solace, it’s what drove her, and in her final moments, it is what surrounded her. ‘i love you, you know that,’ she would say to me, and i did, i knew it from the moment i was born, and i will know it till the moment i die. It was her greatest gift to me,” Anderson posted, along with a series of photos of his late mom.

TMZ is reporting that her rumored cause of death is stomach cancer, which sent her to the hospital earlier in the month.
