Jack and Sophie, Luke Perry's children: what are they doing now?
Several years have passed since that sad March 4th, 2019, when Coy Luther Perry III, commonly known as Luke Perry, suddenly passed away due to a stroke. The shock was especially hard for his family. The two people most important of Luke Perry's life were his son Jack and daughter Sophie.
Jack and Sophie Perry are the children Luke Perry had with his ex-wife, Rachel 'Minnie' Sharp (pictured), with whom he was married for ten years from 1993 to 2003.
The 90s and early 2000s were the years of his incredible success, a time when he had millions of teenagers as fans over the world. His big role was the handsome and sad character Dylan McKay, famous from the series 'Beverly Hills 90210'.
His last work, shortly before he died, was in the Quentin Tarantino-directed film 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' (2019), alongside Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, among other big stars.
His sudden passing left fans and the international entertainment industry shocked.
The only direct recipients of the entire fortune left by Luke Perry were Jack and Sophie Perry, as reported in a 2019 Forbes article published a few days after his death.
In his will, Luke Perry left the entire estate to his two children. It was worth approximately $ 10 million.
Apparently, as Forbes claims, Luke Perry underwent medical examinations in 2015 to check if he had any serious illnesses.
At that time, he decided to make a will to leave all his assets to his children. The actor also left provisions on how his children should proceed in case he had a serious health condition.

Apparently, his last wishes have been honored. As he was hospitalized after the stroke, with barely a chance to survive, his children Jack and Sophie made the decision to pull the plug.
A few years have passed since their father's death. If you take a look at the siblings' Instagram accounts, it is clear that the memory of their dad is still very much alive. An example is this photo published by Sophie on her father's birthday.

The siblings have each taken a completely different path, although from the photos posted on social media they seem to be very close.

Jack Perry has become a fairly famous pro in the world of wrestling, known by the ring name Jungle Boy.
Born on June 16, 1997, Jack Perry showed a huge interest in the world of wrestling as a child. He even attended the SummerSlam live with his father in 2009.
Jack made his debut in the ring in 2016 and has continued his career as a professional wrestler ever since.
In 2019, he signed with All Elite Wrestling as Jungle Boy. He has racked up several titles and accolades including the DDT Ironman Heavymetalweight Championship, PWR Tag Team Championship, and Rookie of the Year.
Jungle Boy is gradually gaining more and more notoriety in the world of wrestling. His hundreds of thousands of followers on Instagram can attest to that.
