It’s becoming more clear why Angus Cloud’s family says he was struggling so much with the loss of his dad … because his father’s life was cut short after a very quick battle with cancer.
Angus Cloud, known for his role in the hit TV show “Euphoria,” recently lost his father, Conor Hickey, to cancer. Hickey, who was 65 years old, passed away on May 18 after a brief fight with the disease. This heartbreaking news was shared by Lisa, Angus’ mother, in a social media post.
Lisa later shared her own thoughts in June after Conor’s memorial service, expressing the devastating impact of his quick-moving cancer. However, she found solace in knowing that his pain was not prolonged.
The loss of his father took a toll on Angus, as his family revealed that Conor was his “best friend.” The timing of the tragedy exacerbated Angus’ grief, as he had just buried his father one week before his own untimely death.
Tragically, Angus Cloud died at his family home on Monday. Oakland PD and Fire Dept. responded to a 911 call from Lisa, reporting a “possible overdose” and stating that her son did not have a pulse. The exact cause of his death has yet to be determined.
The Cloud family had been grappling with severe sadness and suicidal thoughts following Conor’s burial. Angus was staying with his family during this difficult time, hoping to find support and work through his grief.
In the midst of his struggles, Angus shared a touching Instagram post a couple of weeks ago, expressing how much he missed his father. The post served as a heartfelt tribute to Conor, highlighting the deep bond they shared.
The TMZ Podcast recently covered this tragic story, providing more details and analysis. Listeners can access the episode, titled “Euphoria Star Angus Cloud Dead: Details Emerge,” on all podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts.
