Reservoir Dogs actor Michael Madsen was devastated when he received a heartbreaking final text from his son, Hudson Madsen, a 26-year-old U.S. Army Sergeant stationed in Hawaii. Just days after expressing happiness and love for his father, Hudson tragically took his own life. Despite the shock, Michael expressed his deep sorrow and confusion, unable to comprehend the sudden loss of his son.

Hudson was the eldest of Michael’s children with wife DeAnna Madsen, and his godfather was none other than Quentin Tarantino. Michael’s recent wife, Carlie, shared touching social media posts about their relationship, including one where she praised Michael’s unwavering support during her medical procedure.

However, just one month after Hudson’s suicide, Michael found himself in legal trouble, arrested for trespassing at his recently-evicted Malibu mansion. This incident added to Michael’s personal turmoil, as he grappled with his son’s untimely death.

As the family mourned Hudson’s passing, Carlie shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, expressing her ongoing pain and regret over not being able to prevent his suicide. She referred to Hudson lovingly as “Lump,” highlighting the deep bond they shared.

The tragic loss of Hudson Madsen serves as a reminder of the importance of reaching out to loved ones and seeking help in times of need. The family’s statement and Carlie’s heartfelt tribute underscore the profound impact of Hudson’s passing on those who knew and loved him.
