Never,would have thought that he was having a hard time with life and the thought of hey I need to end this now ,So sorry for the loss of a wonderful human being who you want to never stop watching.

I met him about 12 years ago downtown Chicago on Broadway in front of the Green Mill ... he was on the phone pacing up and down the street and I waited a few minutes and he got off the phone and I yelled out “Hey Anthony my sister loves you” and he looked at me and went 🤷🏻‍♂️ and then walked over and introduced himself to me and my buddy. He was super nice and real and he was in Chicago to film an episode of his show. It was great to meet him - hope you’re at peace Anthony - I know you are 🙏🏻

They will be NO one like Anthony Bourdain in this world! To me watching his documentary is like I was there with him, he took me with him in his amazing shows 😢😢

It's not beating up on AB to use this sad choice as motivation to check in on ourselves and others. Suicide is not a desirable outcome, but of course it's not something to blame someone for. I'm very grateful for his life and what he had to say about the world. But given the circumstances, I wish he had taken more time and care for himself-- as we all should.

So sad , he connected with so many people with his talent . God bless him

I never really watched Bourdain's shows, until recently. I think he was great for the world; he helped introduce different foods, people, & cultures to the world. He healed, & didn't divide.

Love and Prayer sent to his family.

Intellegent talented uncompromising. Anthony was a friend to each and every one of us. Each episode he recorded of parts unknown allowed us the adventure few of us would ever taste, hear or see. perhaps he decided that life had given him all there was to offer and it was time to go home. Anthony lived for us and delivered it with style and Witt. He walked streets with a tall, lean, slow kind of stride all over the world searching for us the best of times. Thanks Anthony for the good times and being our friend.

Loved watching him very much you could tell he was a real person and he loved people and he love to travel around the world to see and meet different people and experience their culture he will be truly missed I miss you already Anthony Godspeed

RIP. You visited us last year to find out what the common man eats on the street over here. You were the first chef of a major travel and food tv show to do that. Mental health is important as I too have discovered. Happy trails.

My heart breaks for his daughter. This is so sad. 💔

I don't understand all this concern with keeping people alive when nobody cares about their quality of life. Those who are left behind and express sadness are often the very same people who never raised a finger including governments. People are sleeping rough on the streets, forced to eat rats, denied healthcare and yet everyone wants to prolong their suffering and even God forbid get them to procreate yet another miserable life because the system needs slaves. Bravo those who have the courage to end it all.

I live in a different state, yet I wired him funds to pay his rent for a year after the new baby....He was loved by his Mom, Dad , sibling, Aunts, Cousins and STILL ended it. Your comment about bravery, he was frightened and must have felt hopless ....I still cry for the beautiful soul he was and would have been...for his child who will NEVER know a hug from him.

I still don't believe he would commit suicide!!.. Thanks tony because of you I took a chance and began traveling I went to turkey morocco Spain.. And many other countries and I met my wife in morocco thank you so much and god bless you.

Tony Bourdain was loved by my Father so much, he even started speaking in the same mannerisms. When Dad was in his hospital and as I was leaving for the evening, dad said to me, don't for6to watch Bourdain as he called him, I said dad, my TV channel is set. Tony why, I mean I can relate to everything you've gone through since I'm going thru the same now, but I'm trying to find d my way. How much I loved hearing you speak about food, comforted me to no end, I felt peaceful at bedtime thinking wow, I was just mesmerized by a king, as you always will be

RIP dear Anthony Bourdain. What a wonderful human being and Soul of light. Is so sad of your passing. Now you are free and up in heaven with God. Much love to your dear mother and family. Will always be remembered.

"...like millions of fans his mother is devastated..." Yea, I think they're a little less devasted than his mother. How tone deaf.

Aspartame in our soft drinks and energy drinks are driving people insane every day. This was a very serious issue for me. I progressively lost control and didn't have a clue . I could've harmed myself or someone. Luckily I found out just in time before it unknowly took over completely. If you can spread this, It can help our youth be more stable mentally with peers in our schools. ☺✌
