The entertainment world is mourning the loss of actress Kelley Mack, best known for her role as Addy in The Walking Dead. She passed away on August 2, 2025, in Cincinnati, just weeks after turning 33. Her family shared that she died peacefully after battling diffuse midline glioma, a rare and aggressive form of brain cancer. Despite losing mobility during treatment, Kelley remained hopeful, sharing her journey publicly and leaning on her loved ones.
Born in Cincinnati and trained in cinematography at Chapman University, Kelley built a career in Los Angeles, appearing in Chicago Med, 9-1-1, and contributing to Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. She is survived by her family and longtime boyfriend. A remembrance service will be held on August 16 in Ohio, with a separate celebration in L.A.
Just one day after Kelley’s death, Loni Anderson, iconic star of WKRP in Cincinnati, died on August 3 in Los Angeles at age 79. Known for playing the sharp and glamorous Jennifer Marlowe, Anderson became a beloved figure in television and film. She is survived by her husband Bob Flick, her children, and grandchildren. Both women leave behind enduring legacies in entertainment and will be deeply missed.
