A great loss for world cinematography, the well-known actor passes away at a young age

Billy Miller, star of the TV series "Devil and Charm" and "General Hospital", died on Friday at the age of 43. The Daytime Emmy Award-winning actor was found dead in Austin, Texas.

Miller's manager confirmed the news to Variety.com on Sunday. In fact, Sunday 17/09 was the day when the actor would have turned 44 years old. "The actor was struggling with depression when he died," the statement said. However, the cause of his death remains unknown.

Miller was born on September 17, 1979 and raised in Grand Prairie, Texas. Throughout his childhood, he battled a rare disease that affected the cartilage in his ankle.

His entry into the entertainment industry came when he signed as a model with Wilhelmina and later played Richie Novak from 2007 to 2008 on the soap opera All My Children. Miller then starred on Bold and the Beautiful to take on the role of Billy Abbott.

Miller's role on "Ballure and Charm" earned him three Daytime Emmys. She left the soap opera in 2014 and joined General Hospital. There, Miller played the roles of Jason Morgan and Drew Kane, playing until 2019, and then joined "Suits" for five episodes.

Miller is survived by his mother Patricia, sister Megan, son-in-law Ronnie, nephew Grayson and niece Charley.
