Shailene posted several Instagram Stories after Jean-Marc’s death. “I am in shock. Complete and utter shock. My f**king god death is the worst,” she wrote alongside a photo of Jean-Marc. “But I guess somehow I know you will turn it into a grand adventure — one for the books. One I can’t wait to read and to watch when my time comes. It doesn’t make sense though dude. It doesn’t make sense. Maybe when we wake up tomorrow you’ll be there laughing saying it was just a satirical short film you made. That it’s not real.”
