Steve Bing reportedly wrote notes for both his kids before suicide

Hollywood mogul Steve Bing left a note for each of his two estranged children before he leaped to his death last week, according to a report.

The 55-year-old producer penned a letter to his 18-year-old son with actress Elizabeth Hurley, Damian, as well as Kira Kerkorian, his 21-year-old daughter with tennis player Lisa Bonder, according to Extra.

“One note for each kid,” the entertainment news show’s host Billy Bush said, citing mutual friends who live in the same Los Angeles high-rise from which Bing jumped to his death last Monday.

He didn’t disclose what Bing had written in the notes.

Bing — who had inherited $600 million from his grandfather, a New York real estate developer — had a troubled history with both kids and only admitted he was their father after DNA tests.

But Hurley said they had grown “close” again and that her ex contacted them for Damian’s 18th birthday in April.

Damian, meanwhile, thanked people for their “overwhelming kindness,” saying, “Your love and support has helped me greatly during this challenging time.”

Bush said their mutual friends were shocked by the death — but the coronavirus lockdown “really messed” with Bing, adding to his existing problems.

“Steve Bing had depression with a capital D,” Bush said on the show.
