The Universal Studios

Brad Pitt took his late friend Chris Cornell‘s children to visit Universal Studios on Wednesday, May 31.

The kind-hearted 58-year-old actor was spotted at the Los Angeles theme park accompanying the late Soundgarden’s daughter Toni, 17, and son Christopher, 16, in touching scenes for those mourning the late singer.

The trio was spotted sipping the theme park’s famous butterbeer drinks from Harry Potter World and riding the Jurassic Park water ride.

They were also seen walking in the Simpsons-themed area. Brad and the kids looked happy and were enjoying themselves.

The three were sighted by fellow theme park visitors, who couldn’t help but notice the Oscar winner walking around with his friend’s children, just weeks after the star passed away after hanged himself last month.

The six children he had with Angelina Jolie were not seen, but there were two bodyguards in tow. The Allied actor, 58, set up a private tour for Cornell’s 17-year-old daughter, Toni, and 16-year-old son, Christopher, whom the rocker shared with his wife, Vicky Cornell.

The Soundgarden frontman died on May 17 at age 52 after performing a sold-out concert with his band in Detroit. A Detroit police spokesperson told Us that a family friend found Cornell in the bathroom of his room at the MGM Grand Hotel.

They later confirmed the cause of death as suicide by hanging. Vicky stated on May 19 claiming that the prescription drug Ativan could have played a part in her husband’s death.

Pitt was a longtime pal of the musician, who was found unresponsive with a band around his neck in the bathroom of his hotel room while on tour in Detroit last month.

A medical examiner declared Chris, 52, dead on the scene. Last Thursday, the examiner ruled that Chris had hung himself, finding him on his bathroom floor with a band around his neck.

The family, shocked by the ruling, reportedly tried to access toxicology reports for answers.

A Sad ending

Brian Bumbery, the representative of Cornell, described the musician’s sudden and unexpected death, leaving his wife and family in shock.

Brad was present at Cornell’s funeral last Friday.

The Moneyball actor paid his respects at the memorial service at Hollywood Forever Cemetery, before gathering at a private wake at Craig’s restaurant.

The actor joined fellow celebrity attendees Pharrell Williams, Metallica rockers Lars Ulrich, Dave Grohl, Christian Bale, Josh Brolin, Billy Idol, James Hetfield, and Dave Navarro of Jane’s Addiction to honor his memory.

Vicky Cornell, his wife of 13 years, and their children attended wearing traditional black.

Cornell’s longtime friend, Dr. Eric Esrailian, told CNN that the late star’s wife and kids were the centers of his life.

‘If Cornell was aware of what he was doing I don’t think Chris would ever do this to his family.  The Chris I know would never do this to his family…I completely don’t believe he had this planned out.

‘He always was focused on his children and his wife,

‘Chris was the center of [Vicky’s] world and the world of her children. Everything revolved around Chris because he was such a great, fun, funny person.’ 

Music’s elite and celebrities came together at the somber service on Friday, local time, that focused on the Soundgarden frontman’s love of family and friends as much as it did on his musical achievements as one of the rock’s leading voices.
