Newly departed Fox News Anchor Eric Bolling is dealing with a major family tragedy after his son, Eric Chase Bolling, Jr., was found dead of an apparent suicide.
TMZ is reporting, the young man was found dead only hours after his father was let go from the network.
Sources familiar with the situation tell TMZ … 19-year-old Eric Chase Bolling, Jr. took his life Friday night. His dad and FNC parted company after the co-host of “The Five” allegedly sent lewd text messages to co-workers along with photos of his genitals.
Bolling vowed to clear his name, but the timing certainly suggests it was all too much to handle for his son.
