Paul Teal’s cause of death has been revealed after news the “One Tree Hill” actor died following a health battle.
Teal passed away at 35 on Friday, with his fiancée, Emilia Torello, telling TMZ that he lived only seven months after being diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroendocrine pancreatic cancer in April.
The star — who played Josh Avery in Season 7 of the long-running teen drama — died in a hospital in Raleigh, NC. Teal appeared in seven episodes of the hit teen drama series in 2010. His character was the love interest of Jana Kramer’s character, Alex Dupre. It was later revealed that Josh was gay.
“He was the most talented man I’ve ever met. When he set his mind to something, there was no stopping him,” Torello told the outlet. “He was the most diligent and dedicated person. I truly believed with all of my heart that he would come out the other side of this because of those traits. That’s what makes this loss even more tragic.”
His fiancée revealed his passing in a gut-wrenching social media post on Sunday.
