Cloud’s family announced the 25-year-old’s tragic death Monday, revealing that his father died just weeks before the “Euphoria” actor.
“It is with the heaviest heart that we had to say goodbye to an incredible human today,” they said in a statement shared with TMZ. “As an artist, a friend, a brother and a son, Angus was special to all of us in so many ways.”
“Last week he buried his father and intensely struggled with this loss,” they continued. “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.”
Despite the tragedy, the family hopes people will remember Cloud for “his humor, laughter and love for everyone.”
While his cause of death is still unknown, the family confirmed that he died at their home in Oakland, Calif.
The actor posted a photo of his late father wearing an all-red tracksuit to his Instagram on July 14.
