3. That's what is suspected

He really was a very handsome man. But I wonder if carrying the legacy of his grandfather was more of a burden than he was capable of carrying. Especially if he wanted to be an actor. That's one big pair of shoes to attempt to fill.

Shame.

6. When a young adult dies "suddenly"

It’s an OD. Happens far, far too often around here.

9. Wikipedia (update)

He had overdosed on "illicit fentanyl, oxycodone, and alprazolam".[11]

7. While I'm sorry to learn of his death, he was a really terrible actor.

I saw his hostings on "Cheaters" many times, and, believe me, he was not cut out to be an actor.
Perhaps his grandfather's name led him into that profession, but I suspect he likely would have led a longer life had he found his own niche and followed that.

RIP.

8. Judgmentally speaking: I don't know his reality but he had name, looks, maybe cash. Advantages.

Advantages that most of everybody else don't have. O.K., I'll stop now.
