Alireza Pahlavi committed suicide at his home in Boston, Massachusetts, a spokesman for the family of the former shah of Iran said Tuesday.
Pahlavi, 44, was a son of the former shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, who was overthrown in 1979 and died the following year in exile in Cairo, Egypt.
"It is with immense grief that we would like to inform our compatriots of the passing away of Prince Alireza Pahlavi," the family website said.

It was Bob Wills and His Texas Playboy's and I remember them too. Who could forget "Faded Love"? Hay! That song fit's Robin's story. Are we going around in circles here?

I read almost all of the comments above and much to my surprise is that no body really cared about the dismiss of a young handsome man and especially to think a bit deeper for the reasons brought him to such decision!!!!!!!!
CNN Is showing editorial double-standard. Whatever you think, Shah of Iran is always capitalized. Read any article on Qunt Elizabeth and you will see this bias, let alone the editorial choice of "commit" suicide with such a fresh event.

God bless him. Pahlavi family have been very patriot and Iranians will like them forever.

All that person is communicating is they don't have anything worthwhile to say,
Oh and by the way true Christians do not kill, I can call myself a brain surgeon, But no hospital would hire me unless I could prove I was, Being a member of a so called Christian denomination does not qualify anyone, Only following the
uncorrupted teachings of Jesus Christ does, He said love thy enemy,Turn the other cheek, Do not return evil for evil.
An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth, the only people that prosper are company.s that make monocles and dentures.
