31-Year-Old British Actor Sam Gannon Dies Suddenly While Visiting Family in California

Former Emmerdale actor Sam Gannon has died while travelling in the United States, his family has said. Mr Gannon, 31, who played Kev in the soap in 2019, died suddenly while visiting relatives in California. 
"You just don't expect these things to happen, especially to a young man of 31 who was having the time of his life," his mother Angela Gannon said. 
"He was having a great time, up in the mountains shooting tin cans, building stables for horses. The last time I spoke to him was on Monday."

The cause of Mr Gannon's death remains under investigation, though his mother said he had had a heart condition from birth which had "reared its ugly head" in recent months.
