Reid Flair's passing in 2013 left Ric devastated. Last year, he opened up about the same in an appearance on Club Shay Shay.
Here's what he said about the whole situation:
"I traveled the world with him. I took him to Japan and Europe. We traveled together. I don't know what could have been different. Except, you know that it's so easy for these doctors to say you've got to let them bottom out, kick them to the curb. And I just could not know. (What if) he died and I wasn't there because I kicked him out? Then I can't imagine how someone would feel in that situation," Flair said.
Flair and his family need all the love and support from their friends and fans during this trying time. Losing a loved one at the young age of 24 is bound to leave a family devastated beyond belief.
