Hollywood is mourning the death of Luke Perry<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

In case you missed the news, E! News confirmed Monday morning that the Riverdale<\/em> and former Beverly Hills, 90210<\/em> star passed away<\/a> at 52 after suffering a stroke.<\/p>\n

The actor was first hospitalized in Los Angeles last Wednesday. And while his condition was kept private, a\u00a0rep for Luke previously shot down rumors that the actor was in a coma.<\/p>\n

Pop culture fans will easily remember Luke from when he rose to fame playing heartthrob Dylan McKay on Beverly Hills, 90210<\/em> in the ’90s.\u00a0 Most recently, he played\u00a0Archie’s dad on the hit CW series Riverdale.<\/em><\/p>\n

“We are deeply saddened to learn today about the passing of Luke Perry. A beloved member of the Riverdale<\/em>, Warner Bros. and CW family, Luke was everything you would hope he would be: an incredibly caring, consummate professional with a giant heart, and a true friend to all,” a statement from CW read. “A father figure and mentor to the show’s young cast, Luke was incredibly generous, and he infused the set with love and kindness. Our thoughts are with Luke’s family during this most difficult time.”<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

Away from the small screen, Luke was a proud dad to two children including son\u00a0Jack Perry<\/strong>\u2014a wrestler who goes by the name “Jungle Boy” Nate Coy, and daughter\u00a0Sophie Perry<\/strong>, from a previous marriage to\u00a0Rachel “Minnie” Sharp<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

When I was lucky enough to work with Luke Perry I told him about the pillow of his face I used to sleep with and he yelled “You are such a weirdo!” at me and it was the best. Sending love to his friends and family.<\/p>\n
