The 41 year old actor Josh Gad, known for his role in ‘Frozen’, has revealed his 20-year old nephew died in his sleep.
Gad took to Twitter to express his mourning and loss of his beloved family member.
On Sunday, Josh wrote, “Thank you all for your love. Our beloved nephew Marco passed away in his sleep at 20, his life cut far too short and our pain far too deep.”
He went on to write, “Our family is trying to make sense of it all but your support has been incredible. “
A specific cause of death has not been shared. Josh did have many celebrity friends show him support.
Days prior, Josh alluded to the tragedy while also reacting to the Supreme Court’s decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.
He wrote, “As my family and I deal with unimaginable loss today, I am also trying to balance it with the heartbreak of the events of today. Sometimes you need a shoulder to cry on, a hand to hold or a partner to fight alongside. To every woman in fear today, I will be all of the above.”
“They want us to be apathetic. We can’t. They want us to crumble. We don’t. They want us to concede more rights and freedoms. We won’t. Grieve today. Fight tomorrow. I will be right there with you.”
Josh has two children; Ava, 11, and Isabella, 8 with wife Ida Darvish as they were married in 2008.
He alluded to the tragedy earlier that day as he wrote, “Don’t ask for a lot of love but our family could use it today.”
