Rose McGowan reacted to the news of Anthony Bourdain's suicide on Friday in an emotional video posted to Twitter.

The actress sobbed in the video as she said: 'For those considering suicide plese don't, its a permanent solution to a temporary problem and the world will not be better off without you.'

McGowan also included a lengthy post in which she wrote: 'Anthony I am so mad at you. You were so loved, the world is not better without you.'

She later stated: 'Asia needed you, Anthony. We needed you. Please come back.'

Bourdain, 61, was found unresponsive in his hotel room on Friday morning by his good friend and fellow chef Eric Ripert.

He had been in Kaysersberg, France shooting an episode of his popular CNN series Parts Unknown, and leaves behind an 11-year-old daughter, Ariane.

Difficult time: 'Asia needed you, Anthony. We needed you. Please come back,' wrote McGowan on social media when posting the video

Tribute: McGowan also shared a photo that Argento had posted of Bourdain last month and wrote: 'Through space and time, Anthony. Your love will find you again'

Soon after releasing that video, McGowan shared a photo that Argento had posted of Bourdain last month and wrote: 'Through space and time, Anthony. Your love will find you again.'

McGowan also posted the same photo on Instagram and wrote: 'Asia loves you. Your daughter loves you. Anna and Nicola love you. You were not just loved, your were beloved. And you chose a permanent solution to a temporary problem.

'She needed you. We all needed you. Please if you are at the edge, reach out to a hotline or a doctor. Do not choose a permanent solution to a temporary problem. Oh, Bourdain. Please come back. Asia. My Asia. Who has been through more than most could bear. I wrap my arms around you.'

Argento released a statement a few hours after Bourdain's death which read: 'Anthony gave all of himself in everything that he did. His brilliant, fearless spirit touched and inspired so many, and his generosity knew no bounds.

'He was my love, my rock, my protector. I am beyond devastated.

'My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I would ask that your respect their privacy and mine.'

Argento was one of the first actresses to accuse the disgraced mogul of sexual assault, telling The New Yorker that Weinstein raped her in 1997 at a party hosted by Miramax at the Hotel Du Cap-Eden-Roc during the Cannes Film Festival.

Shortly before the New Yorker story was published, Weinstein asked Argento to meet with a private investigator and give testimony on his behalf.

At the time she had been with Bourdain for close to a year.

The chef and self-proclaimed film fanatic first met Argento in 2016 when she appeared on the Rome episode of his Emmy-winning travel show.

Bourdain and Argento's relationship became public after the two were seen in Rome together early last year.

The two were spotted walking around the city hand-in-hand and then seen sharing a kiss after enjoying dinner at Pommidoro.

The two then returned to their hotel room.

Happy together: Argento shared a photo of herself and Bourdain last week in Firenze (above) that showed them embracing after wrapping a new episode of Bourdain's show.

Fan: Bourdain said in a blog post last week that when the director he had hired to shoot the episode had to undergo emergency surgery he hired Argento to take over, noting it was 'fair to say' he and the actress were 'quite close.'

Bourdain's Rome episode of 'Parts Unknown' was a remarkable feat, and one that was inspired in some ways by Argento's father.

Dario Argento is considered by many to be one of the great horror directors, and is known for his highly stylized films, among them the 1977 classic Suspiria.

The episode was shot entirely in widescreen and featured no imagery of classic Rome, choosing instead to show only 'the architecture of Mussolini and post-Mussolini era.'

Argento helped Bourdain with this by showing him some of her favorite spots and having her sister cook for him.

She even took Bourdain to what he described as a 'bats*** crazy boxing club where we ate pasta ringside as gladiators pounded one another and the crowd hooted and roared.'

Argento has two children, an 8-year-old son Nicola with her ex-husband Michele Civetta and a 16-year-old daughter Anna from her relationship with musician Marco Castoldi.

She shot to fame as a teenager due to her famous father and roles in a number of Italian movies, receiving the Italian equivalent of the Academy Award twice before the age of 20.

Argento then found fame in America with her role opposite Vin Diesel in XXX, and two years later was back with her English language directorial debut, having adapted J. T Leroy's controversial novel 'The Heart is Deceitful Above All Things.'

She has appeared in a number of films over the past decade, most notably Marie Antoinette, Boarding Gate, The Last Mistress and Mother of Tears.

In 2014 she premiered her film Misunderstood at the Cannes Film Festival, which she wrote and directed, telling the press that she was done with acting.

Bourdain was a fan of the film, which he called 'remarkable and beautiful.'

After the two met, he posted a pic of Dario with his young daughter on Twitter, writing: 'Happy Birthday to the master.'

Argento shared a photo of the pair last week in Florence that showed them embracing after wrapping a new episode of Bourdain's show.

'It is with extraordinary sadness we can confirm the death of our friend and colleague, Anthony Bourdain,' CNN said in a statement Friday morning.

'His love of great adventure, new friends, fine food and drink and the remarkable stories of the world made him a unique storyteller. His talents never ceased to amaze us and we will miss him very much. Our thoughts and prayers are with his daughter and family at this incredibly difficult time.'

CNN president Jeff Zucker said in an email to employees on Friday: 'Tony was an exceptional talent. Tony will be greatly missed not only for his work but also for the passion with which he did it.'
