I am beyond devastated. My thoughts are with his family. I would ask that you respect their privacy and mine.”

Argento later reflected in a Story of the lyrics David Bowie’s hit song “Lazarus” on June 14.

“Look up here, I’m in heaven / I’ve got scars that can’t be seen / I’ve got drama, can’t be stolen / Everybody knows me now,” she wrote on top of a screenshot of the song. “[Verse 2] Look up here, man, I’m in danger/ I’ve got nothing left to lose / I’m so high it makes my brain whirl / Dropped my cell phone down below / Ain’t that just like me?”

Argento and Bourdain began dating in 2017 after working together on the 2016 Rome episode of the hit CNN series, Parts Unknown.
