Jesse Farrelly, the son of director Bobby Farrelly ( Something About Mary , Hall Pass ), passed away Wednesday night after paramedics arrived at his Costa Mesa apartment and found him unresponsive, authorities report. He was 20 years old. TMZ cites sources who say Jesse was transported to a local hospital and pronounced dead a short time after his body was discovered. He passed away from a suspected overdose, as the coroner has ruled out foul play. In response to the tragedy, the Farrelly family – which includes fellow director Peter, pictured above with Bobby – released a statement that reads: “It is with profound sorrow that we accept the passing of our beloved Jesse following his struggle with addiction. We fully trust that he is now in the hands of our Lord. “We are immeasurably grateful for the abundance of happiness and laughter he brought into our lives, and we will rejoice eternally for all the moments we got to breathe in his wondrous spirit. The family thanks you for your well wishes and kindly asks that you respect our privacy during this difficult time.”
