U.S. soap opera star John Callahan has died aged 66.
The actor, who played, Edmund Grey on All My Children, died on Saturday, after suffering a "massive stroke" at his Palm Desert, California, home the day prior, reported TMZ
His death was announced by his ex-wife and former co-star, Eva LaRue, who was married to the actor from 1996 to 2005, and with whom he shared daughter Kaya McKenna, 18.
"Wing You to Your Rest my Dear Friend," LaRue posted on Instagram, along with a series of family snaps.
"Your bigger than life, gregarious personality will leave a hole in our hearts forever. We are devastated-My great friend, co parent partner, and loving father to Kaya," she continued. "You gave the best, most beautifully written tributes, and I am at a complete loss for words right now for you. I hope Heaven has baseball and that your team always wins! The Yankees has just lost their biggest fan."
John's former co-star Kelly Ripa also shared a sweet message, alongside an image of Callahan and LaRue from when they were expecting Kaya.
"Because there are no words, all i can muster is Rest In Peace #johncallahan My heart breaks for you @evalarue and @kaya_callahan," she said.
Stars including Finola Hughes and Holly Robinson Peete also penned tributes online.
