According to the American Cancer Society, one in three people will die from cancer in their lifetime. Unfortunately, actor Julian McMahon is the latest statistic, passing away at the age of 56 after a private battle with the disease. His friend and former co-star Alyssa Milano shared a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, remembering his kindness, charisma, and talent.
McMahon’s wife, Kelly, confirmed his passing via Deadline on July 4, stating that he died peacefully after a long battle with cancer. The statistics are stark: in the United States alone, over 1.8 million new cancer cases will be diagnosed this year, and nearly 609,000 people will die from the disease.
As Milano’s tribute highlights, McMahon was a family man who loved deeply, and his passing is a reminder of the devastating impact that cancer can have on individuals and their loved ones.
