Luke Perry, 90210 and Riverdale Actor, Dead at 52 from a Stroke

in Death by

I don’t think I had a bigger crush in the 90’s than Luke Perry. I think I had about 5 posters of just him hanging in my bedroom. I was so saddened to hear that he passed this week. I only started watching Riverdale because he played Archie Andrew’s father, Fred. I was never a fan of the Archie comics and was not particularly interested in the story, however because Luke Perry was in it, I watched it. I think most women who lived during the 90’s feel the same way about Luke Perry.

His beloved character on 90201, Dylan McKay, was a bad boy loner who was also very emotionally vulnerable and women everywhere loved him. He played the character with such convincing likeness that fans still jokingly refer to him as “Dylan” even as his career moved on. Even though his good looks and acting credentials secured him as a Hollywood heartthrob, Perry was also known for his charitable acts and random acts of kindness. There was an outpouring of stories from people that have stepped forward to share stories about the late actor’s good deeds.

Perry passed away Monday morning from a stroke at St. Joseph’s Hospital in Burbank. He was surrounded by loved ones when he died. He was rushed to the hospital last week after a call came from his house reporting that he had suffered from a stroke. He was responsive when medics first arrived but his conditioned started to deteriorate rapidly.

There has been a huge outpouring of sadness from writers and actors that have worked with Perry. People who loved and worked with him have taken to their social media accounts to express their profound sadness over his passing. His co-star, Lili Reinhart, from Riverdale tweeted:

Also, his co-stars from his 90201 days are sharing their grief about the loss of their friend and previous co-star.

Even writers from his previous shows are showing their sadness and support for the actor and his family. Aaron Harberts and Gretchen Berg, who penned the amazing episode that saw his return to 90201, spoke of the profound loss of such an amazing actor.

Perry, outside his roles on 90210 and Riverdale, also had prominent roles on shows like Another World, Oz, Jeremiah,Windfall, John from Cincinnati, and Body of Proof. He also appeared in much loved movies like Buff the Vampire Slayer, 8 seconds, and just finished filming for Quentin Tarantino’s latest film, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood.

Paris  was interviewed by Rolling Stone and she revealed that she believes that her father was murdered. She also said that she was raped when she was younger and that she tried to commit suicide multiple times. Paris was only 11 years old when her father died of a cardiac arrest but she believes that he was “setup” to die.

During the interview she said that her father would make suggestions that his life being in danger. “He would drop hints about people being out to get him. And at some point he was like, ‘They’re gonna kill me one day”, Paris said. She also went on to say, “It’s obvious. All arrows point to that. It sounds like a total conspiracy theory and it sounds like bulls***, but all real fans and everybody in the family knows it. It was a setup. It was bulls***.”

Michael’s own personal physician Dr Conrad Murray was later convicted of involuntary manslaughter and sentenced to four years in prison over his death. Paris did say that she does blame Dr. Murray for the death of her father but that it was part of a larger, sinister conspiracy. She won’t give the details of what she believed the conspiracy to be but she did say, “And I am trying to play the chess game the right way. And that’s all I can say about that right now.”

She was only 14 when she was sexually assaulted. Paris then went on a downward spiral of depression and drug addiction. She tried to commit suicide several times and hid her injuries from self harm from her family. Paris said she went to a therapeutic school in Utah after her last suicide attempt, and the school helped heal a lot of her wounds from her past and she changed into a completely different person.

Paris does seem to be on a better path in life. She is currently dating Michael Snoddy and works as a model. She is hoping to get into acting very soon.
