3. His dad was Wyatt Cooper, an actor and screenwriter
He and Gloria had two sons - Anderson and Carter. He died when the boys were very young.

11. Some say that it was suicide.
I saw an interview w/ Gloria Vanderbilt and she says that he was medicated for something at the time and he leaned over too far(was sitting on the ledge) and fell.
Who really knows?

14. That's her story.
But others say it was a suicide (bad breakup or something). I remember watching an interview w/ her late one night when I was pregnant and she talked about it.
No one will ever know the truth.
