Rick Harrison, the beloved star of the hit TV show Pawn Stars, has broken his silence following the devastating loss of his 39-year-old son, Adam. The news of Adam’s passing sent shockwaves through the entertainment industry and beyond, with fans and friends alike offering their condolences to the grieving family.

According to Rick, Adam’s death was the result of a fentanyl overdose, a tragedy that has left the family reeling. “Yes, I can confirm Adam died from a fentanyl overdose,” Rick said in a statement. “The fentanyl crisis in this country must be taken more seriously. It seems it is just flowing over the borders and nothing is being done about it. We must do better.”

The investigation into Adam’s death is ongoing, with the Las Vegas Metro Police Department working to determine the circumstances surrounding the overdose. As the family navigates this difficult time, they have asked for privacy and understanding.

Adam was Rick’s second child from his first marriage to Kim Harrison, and the younger brother of Corey Harrison, who appears alongside Rick on Pawn Stars. While Adam did not appear on the show, he had worked at the family’s Gold & Silver Pawn shop before the series premiered in 2009.

Rick took to Instagram to pay tribute to his son, sharing a heartfelt photo and message. “You will always be in my heart! I love you Adam,” he wrote. The
