Zelda, Seth Rogen and Lauren Miller’s beloved Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, passed away on May 4, 2023 – Just three months shy of her 14th birthday. Rogen shared the sad news on Instagram with a heartfelt tribute.
We said goodbye to our perfect girl Zelda on Thursday, May 4th. She was almost 14 years old. She was truly the most special, magical creature. She taught us about love, resilience, strength and kindness. We loved her more than words can describe. Over the years, Rogen always mentions Zelda and often posts about her, so any fan of Rogen knows Zelda and the love they shared. The same goes for his celebrity friends, with many of them commenting with their condolences.
