"Scream Queens" star Lea Michele paid a special tribute to her late "Glee" co-star and one time real-life boyfriend Cory Monteith with a heartfelt and sentimental Twitter post.
The 28-year-old actress posted a picture of a silhouette of Monteith aka Finn Hudson, which she captioned: "Today we remember the laughter and joy you brought into our lives every day. We think of you always and love you so." Following her post, the hashtag #2YearsWithoutCory trended worldwide, as per E! News.
The 31-year-old actor, in the midst of a busy and successful career, was found dead two years ago in a hotel room in Vancouver, after succumbing to a drug overdose, which the coroner officially pointed out as a blended drug toxicity after alcohol and heroin were discovered in his body.
Meanwhile, according to Xpose, Kevin McHale, who co-starred with the former couple in the breakthrough TV musical series "Glee", revealed previously that he felt the show never fully recovered from the repercussions of Monteith's death. McHale plays the role of Artie Abrams.
McHale said, ''When Cory Monteith died, I don't think the show ever came back from that. It wasn't for a lack of trying ... I think after that the vibe onset is different. It was just weird for us being there never mind actually filming."
''Being one of the writers in that sort of situation I wouldn't know what I would've done because I was like, 'I don't even really want to be here,'" he added.
On the other hand, CBS News reported that Lea Michele is going strong with boyfriend Matthew Peatz. The two met while the singer/actress was filming her music video "On My Way" in April 2014. On her Instagram post dated last May, she thanked new found love Peatz for bringing back happiness into her life.
