Michael Clarke Duncan Has Died at Age 54

September 3, 2012 by tamaratattles 8 Comments

I’m sad to report that Oscar-nominated actor, Michael Clarke Duncan has died at the age of 54. He suffer a serious heart attack on July 13th and was unable to recover. Duncan had been moved out of ICU in early August and I was hoping he would make a full recover. Omarosa (yes, that Omarosa) has been by his side in the hospital for his entire stay. There were unsubstantiated rumors around the time of his heart attack that Omarosa performed life-saving CPR on Duncan. The two were engaged to be married after two years of dating.

Duncan became a vegetarian about three years ago citing numerous health issues as the cause for the lifestyle change. He was reported to be in seemingly good health at the time of his death. Duncan had recently wrapped his scenes in The Challenger, and movie currently in post-production where he plays a boxing trainer. The Challenger is an action movie and Duncan’s role was somewhat physical and he appeared to have no health issues during filming. I was a fan of Duncan and this makes me a bit sad.

Thoughts?

    This is heartbreaking news. Clarke-Duncan was the heart & soul of ‘The Green Mile’ (a film that still causes me to ugly cry whenever I watch it). 2012 has been a year of loss. Does it ever end.

    Yes, very sad indeed and too young for sure.

    I am pleasantly surprised to read that Omarosa was at his bedside the whole time he was in the hospital. They clearly loved each other.

    I enjoy watching him in the tv spinoff from Bones, I can’t remember the name.

    Very sad. He looks so strong. Heart disease is a silent killer.

      Heart disease is actually a higher killer for Women than cancer. With the increase in obesity it is only set to rise.
