Tragic "Iron Giant" related news

[Noriel Justine Q]

Nicholas Hughes, son of Ted Hughes and Sylvia Plath, has committed suicide.

Ted Hughes was the author of "The Iron Giant" novel. I think he wrote that novel to help him cope with the suicide of his wife Plath. Isn't Hogarth Hughes based on his son Nicholas.

What a sad story.

Darn. May he rest in peace. He is in a better place now and wont be depressed any longer.

That terrible, and my condolences go out to his family. Suicide is something no one should ever have to go through. My he rest in peace.

Losing both his wife and son to suicide must be unbearable! Hopefully Ted Hughes has a lot of friends and family members to support him right now. :crying:

Unfortunately, Ted Hughes died in 1998.

Oh. Its weird that the linked article mentioned him but didn't point that out. :shrug:

Anyway, I just read up on all the turmoil that went on in that family. And now my heart goes out to Freida Hughes. I really hope she's able to cope with this and seeks out help if she starts to get depressed (just in case there's a genetic component to the severe depression that killed half her family).
