Beverly Hills, 90210 actor David Gail has died at the age of 58.
Gail's death was made public on the Beverly Hills, 91210 rewatch podcast by his longtime friend, Peter Ferriero. He spent some time reminiscing on their memories together, including a clip he posted packed full of some great moments that he appeared on the show via Zoom. He wrote alongside the post: "In memory of David Gail. Here are a few stories he shared when he joined the podcast."
David's cause of death is currently unknown to the public. Originally, fans doubted the news as Peter broke it before the family and before news outlets were given an official notice. The skepticism grew when fans couldn't find additional sources and they pressed Peter for answers. He wrote in response: "Please stop. The family will report it at the appropriate time to [the news media]. I am sharing what I've been told to make sure his fans know what has happened."
