Actor Luke Perry has died at the age of 52.

Luke Perry of “Beverly Hills, 90210” fame has died from a massive stroke.  (October 11, 1966 – March 4, 2019) On 90210 his James Dean type personification helped to make the edgy character Dylan McKay popular among the show’s teen and young adult fans. The show was on from 1990 to 1995. Perry was married to Rachel Minnie Sharp from 1993 to 2003. The couple had two children, Jack (born June 15, 1997) and Sophie (born June 7, 2000). His son, Jack, is a professional wrestler known by his ring name “Jungle Boy” Nate Coy, who is signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW.) His fiancé Wendy Madison Bauer was at his bedside along with his x-wife and other members of his family along with friends at his passing.

Like many actors of his generation, his first success came from daytime soap operas. Perry’s earliest roles were in the daytime soap operas Loving (1987–88) and Another World (1988–89). From there his career blossomed and as far as I know he worked fairly steady in the industry. That is not always an easy task.

He was a good actor.

At the time of his death he had a steady role as Fred Andrews on the CW show Riverdale. He had a net worth of around $10 million.
