Before his father's death last month, Crowe spent the last few months by his side. In a series of heartfelt posts on social media, the actor referred to John Alexander as the "most gentle of men."

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, Crowe isolated with John Alexander and his mother Jocelyn for several months, at the family's country estate on Nana Glen, New South Wales.

In an appearance on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Crowe revealed that he had invited his sons to spend lockdown with him and their grandparents, but they had chosen to stay in the city.

Crowe's father passed away on the domestic flight from Sydney to Coffs Harbour. A passenger said that that staff and a doctor on board tried to revive the 85-year-old.

Crowe was showered with support after he announced the death of his father. The actor immediately received a flurry of good wishes from his celebrity friends and legion of fans.

Like Crowe, actor Michael Douglas also shared close ties with his late father, Kirk Douglas, who passed away in February 2020. Douglas recently honored his legendary father one year after his death.
