Kirk was hospitalized in intensive care on April 18, according to an Instagram post shared by his co-stars Aimee Hall and Nilsa Prowant on Thursday.
The TV personality fell into a coma shortly afterwards.
Hall announced the news in a post on Facebook on Friday.
She wrote: “We lost our brother, our best friend, our heart – Kirk.
“I was at the beach when I felt it. Before the call even came, a dolphin kept coming up to me, as if to say goodbye.
“Kirk and I shared a love for dolphins and the ocean, and in that moment, I just knew.
“Though my heart is shattered, I find peace in knowing he’s no longer in pain.
“He’s in heaven now – free, whole, and making everyone laugh the way only he could.”
She added: “Kirk had the kindest soul, a heart full of love for everyone he met, and a spirit that brought people together.
“He truly was the glue that held us all close.”
