He had recently undergone major heart surgery but was said to be recovering well, according to a source who spoke to Us Weekly earlier this summer.

Sky added, “He had been dealing with some health issues, but I truly believed we would overcome them. I had so much faith in his strength. I thought we still had more time. This loss is sudden and impossible to process. To the world, he was a legend … but to me, he was my Terry. The man I loved. My partner. My heart.”
