Bourdain's Daughter, Mom Post Remembrance On Instagram
NEW YORK (CBSNewYork/AP) -- Anthony Bourdain's 11-year-old daughter performed in a concert just days after her father died of an apparent suicide in France.
Bourdain's ex-wife, Ottavia Busia, shared a photo on Instagram of their child, Ariane, appearing on stage at a music venue in New York.
"Our little girl had her concert today," wrote Busia. "She was amazing. So strong and brave. She wore the boots you bought her. I hope you are having a good trip, wherever you are."
Authorities said the 61-year-old cook, writer and host of the CNN series "Parts Unknown," killed himself Friday in a luxury hotel in France's eastern Alsace region.
