Four months after Rivera’s death, Dorsey filed a wrongful death lawsuit on behalf of his son against Ventura County and Lake Piru’s management. The suit was settled in 2022. He told People that it was “too hard” for him to talk about Rivera’s passing at length over the last four and a half years.

Ryan Dorsey, ex-husband of "Glee" star Naya Rivera is opening up about Rivera's death and raising their son Josey.

Naya Rivera's son Josey tried to throw her a rope the day she drowned in Lake Piru in Ventury Country, Calif., in 2020, but a spider stopped the boy, then 4, in his tracks.

Dorsey also shared what the 9-year-old remembers from the 33-year-old “Glee” alum’s “last moments” before she drowned in California’s Lake Piru in 2020.

"It just rocks my world that he had to witness her last moments," Ryan Dorsey said of their son, who was with Rivera before she drowned while swimming in Lake Piru.

Naya Rivera’s son, Josey, not only remembers the day she died but also continues to experience guilt over his attempt to save her, according to his father, Ryan Dorsey.

For the first time since Naya Rivera's passing, her ex-husband, Ryan Dorsey, says their son, Josey, has remembered more from that day
