Life is not fair sometimes. But it is better to accept this unfair life and focus on the fair part. You must be wondering why I’m suddenly talking about all these philosophical things. But the incident and the person are making me think like this. Yes, Eric Jude Crewe, Ricky Nelson’s son.
Eric Jude couldn’t be a star and crush on many women like his father. Ricky Nelson, the famous musician, was the dream of many girls.
He was the perfect balance of charming personality and great talent. I’m talking about the times when people were less interested in makeup and fake appearance. Everything about celebrities was just natural.
Perhaps this is the reason people are still unable to get him out of their minds.
Eric Jude Crewe is a name that many of you have no idea about or just have heard in minor references. He is the son of your rockstar Ricky Nelson.
Now, you must be thinking, where is he now? Do we know him? Did he choose rock or something else?
He chose nothing. Yes, you have heard it right. Eric is living a life just like you and me. Simple and less popular. I think His father’s death was more shocking to him than to us.
Ricky Nelson’s Death
Ricky’s death was unpredictable and not at all expected. It reminds me of the death of Micheal Jackson. He died performing on the stage. He fell down, and it was the end. How elegant and sad at the same time.
Ricky Nelson died in a plane crash. Yes, a pretty normal yet fatal death. It was not something that people could pray for. They knew that they had lost their idol forever. He was in his 50s at that time.
When the news came out, fans were in disbelief, but now it is officially confirmed that he did die in a plane crash.
After that, we started getting less information about his family. Now, we are standing in a time where the family of a super popular artist is living a life that is unnamed and uncelebrated.
Eric Jude Crewe might be in his 40s or 50s, too, at this time. We are not saying that he is depressed but not choosing the path of his dad tells a lot about a celebrity child.
Maybe he didn’t want to be a part of this industry where he is reminded of his father again and again and decided to take the more peaceful path.
Wrapping up
You know, bigger personalities have a lot of stories that are not told. Conor, for example, suffered a lot when people kind of forced him to reveal his sexuality, and he didn’t want to do that.
But no matter what, as humans, we have learned to let go of things and start a new phase of life. Eric might be very happy with his life, but it would have made us happier to see him as a part of the music industry.
