Heather Morris is commemorating her former Glee co-star, Naya Rivera, on the fourth anniversary of her untimely passing.
Naya, aged 33, tragically passed away in July 2020 during a boating trip with her son, Josey, who is now eight. Authorities believe she used all her strength to heroically save her son as their boat drifted away.
On the anniversary of Naya’s death, Heather, 37, took to Instagram on Monday (July 8) to share a heartfelt tribute to her late friend.
“I can’t believe it’s been 4 years… boy how time flies. Yet every year I’m taken by surprise how much it still hurts,” Heather wrote, along with a black and white photo of her and Naya cuddling in bed.
“We grew up together, fell apart, and came back together in such a beautiful way,” Heather continued. “God, you’re missed so much… except I can’t shake the feeling you never left… you’re still here with us, guiding us to our highest potential. I miss you, Nay Nay.”
