President Trump on Friday morning reacted to the death of famed chef, author, and television personality Anthony Bourdain. “Very sad,” the president said, reportedly adding condolences to the Bourdain family. “He was quite a character,” Trump added from the lawn of the White House as he made his way to travel to the G-7 meetings in Canada. Bourdain, 61, died from an apparent suicide, CNN reported. He was found unresponsive Friday morning, in a French hotel, by his friend, restaurateur Eric Ripert.
