After months of unrelenting bullying at school, the 13-year-old son of Australian actress Clare McCann took his own life.
At a heartfelt ceremony held Monday at Waverley’s Mary Immaculate Catholic Church in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, Atreyu McCann was recalled as a creative and kind person.
As video of Atreyu performing, singing, and proudly standing next to his mother at red carpet events rolled, friends and relatives crowded the church to watch in quiet.
Atreyu had artistic ambitions, just like his mother, a celebrated journalist, director, and actor who starred in the Channel V series Blog Party.
