'Gloria Vanderbilt, the iconic New York socialite, has died at the age of 95 after a battle with stomach cancer. Tributes to the socialite were led by her son, CNN anchor Anderson Cooper (pictured left with his mother in 2016 and top right as a child) on Monday. The ‘poor little rich girl’ heiress at the center of a scandalous custody battle of the 1930s and the designer jeans queen of the 1970s and \'80s was diagnosed with advanced stomach cancer earlier this month. \'She was ready. She was ready to go,\' Cooper said. He added that she was surrounded by \'beauty and friends when it was time.\' She died at home on Monday morning, the \'way she wanted\', her son said. \'What an extraordinary mom and what an incredible woman,\' Cooper said through tears during an emotional obituary package which aired on CNN on Monday a little after 10am. Cooper said that over the last few weeks, every time he left his mother he told her that he loved her. \'She said, \"I love you too. You know that.\" And she was right. I\'ve known it from the moment I was born and I\'ll know it for the rest of my life,\' he said. Cooper also shared a touching video of his mother laughing in her hospital bed (bottom right), adding that he only discovered they share the exact same giggle in her last days.
