'Euphoria' Star Angus Cloud Dead at 25 After Struggling With the Recent Loss of His Father

Angus Cloud, known for playing Fezco in the hit series Euphoria, has died at 25 years old, TMZ reported on Monday, July 31.

"It is with the heaviest heart that we had to say goodbye to an incredible human today. As an artist, a friend, a brother and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways," the actor's family said in a statement.

They continued, "Last week he buried his father and intensely struggled with this loss. The only comfort we have is knowing Angus is now reunited with his dad, who was his best friend. Angus was open about his battle with mental health and we hope that his passing can be a reminder to others that they are not alone and should not fight this on their own in silence."

"We hope the world remembers him for his humor, laughter and love for everyone. We ask for privacy at this time as we are still processing this devastating loss," the family concluded.

Cloud previously had a brush with death when he was younger, as he shared how he got the scar on the right side of his head, resulting from a fall when he was around 14 or 15 years old.

“I was trapped. I eventually climbed out after – I don’t know how long,” he told Variety. “It was h---- hard to climb out, because my skull was broken, but my skin wasn’t, so all the bleeding was internal, pressing up against my brain.”
