Tragic Losses Jennifer Aniston Has Suffered

On July 4, 2022, Jennifer Aniston was rocked by the sudden death of someone she worked with. Gunnar Mortensen, a camera assistant who was employed with Aniston’s series “The Morning Show,” died after suffering injuries from a fatal motorcycle accident. At the time, Mortensen had been working with Aniston and the other cast and crew for two seasons.

In response to his tragic death, Aniston took to social media to express her heartbreak. “This past week, we suddenly and tragically lost Gunnar Mortensen,” she captioned her Instagram story. “One of the bright lights on our @themorningshow set.” (via Independent). The actor went on to ask her more than 40 million followers to donate to a GoFundMe page that was set up to support Mortensen’s surviving wife and their young son. She finished her tribute by stating “We are going to miss you, Gunnar.”

The GoFundMe page blew past its original goal of $20,000 to raise over $150,000 for Mortensen’s family.
