“It is with great sadness that I announce that Lee Thompson Young tragically took his own life this morning,” his longtime manager Jonathan Baruch said in a statement.
“Lee was more than just a brilliant young actor. He was a wonderful and gentle soul who will be truly missed,” Baruch said. “We ask that you please respect the privacy of his family and friends as this very difficult time.”
