Sophia Bush attended the White House Correspondents Dinner in Washington, D.C., just hours after learning that her ex-boyfriend Dan Fredinburg had died.
E! Online reported that Fredinburg died in a Mount Everest avalanche. The couple started dating back in 2013 and ended up splitting up February 2014. The two remained friends.
NBC reported that Fredinburg was a Google executive. He had been scaling Everest for the past three months as part of an expedition team.
Bush looked stunning in a draped emerald green ball gown but it was clear that she was still dealing with the tragic loss. Before arriving at the dinner, Bush took to Instagram to post about Fredinburg and how he will be missed.
"I was looking forward to our planned download of 'all the things' when he got home," Bush wrote on Instagram. "I am crushed that I will never hear that story."
In a heartfelt Instagram post earlier that day, Sophia remembered Dan as "one-of-a-kind. Fearless. Funny…He was one of my favorite human beings on Earth."
