Actor Alex Duong, a familiar face from television shows like "Blue Bloods" and "Everybody Hates Chris," passed away on Sunday. He was 42 years old.
Duong had been undergoing treatment for alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma, a rare soft tissue cancer that had affected his vision. A GoFundMe campaign was established in February 2025 to help cover his extensive medical bills.
His wife, Christina, and daughter, Everest, were present during his final moments. The GoFundMe update shared that Duong was comfortable and out of pain, and was able to say goodbye to his daughter.
Support from the entertainment community was evident, with a comedy benefit show held last August featuring prominent comedians. Duong had previously spoken about the solidarity within the comedy world during difficult times.
