Chris Rock regrets not helping his older brother overcome his lengthy battle with alcoholism, a family friend has said.
Chris battled to save his brother Charles Ledell Rock from drinking himself into an early grave and was devastated after Charles died last year.
"His drinking ruined his marriage. He'd come to family functions drunk," a friend told ‘The National Enquirer’.
"Chris stepped in and tried to help Charles by paying for him to go to an alcohol rehab residence. But Charles walked out of the residence and never came back.
The friend added: "It was really sad. Chris sat around with his family, saying he wished he had done more. They all said they wished they had done more."
