After three months, the cause of death for ALF child star Benji Gregory has been revealed.
Benji Gregory, the beloved child star known for his role as Brian Tanner in the hit sitcom ALF, tragically passed away at the age of 46 in June. It's been three months since his untimely death, and the cause has finally been revealed. On June 13, Gregory was found deceased in his car in an Arizona parking lot, alongside his service dog Hans.

According to the Maricopa County Office of the Medical Examiner, Gregory's cause of death was heat exposure due to his liver cirrhosis. The hot Arizona sun and long-term damage to his liver were contributing factors. His sister Rebecca Pfaffinger shared the news on Facebook, remembering her brother as fun and full of laughter. She also mentioned his loyal service dog Hans, who died by his side.

Pfaffinger revealed that Gregory had been struggling with depression, bipolar disorder, and a sleep disorder that often kept him awake for days. Despite his challenges, he was a talented and well-loved actor who started his career at the young age of 8. ALF, the show that made him a star, followed the story of a family who takes in an alien from the planet Melmac, causing chaos and hilarity in their lives.

After the show's successful run, Gregory went on to appear in other popular TV shows and films such as The A-Team, Punky Brewster, and The Twilight Zone. However, he eventually left acting and joined the US Navy in 2003, where he became an aerographer's mate. He married his wife Sarah in 2006 after being discharged, but it is unclear if they are still together.

Gregory's sister has suggested making donations to The Actors Equity Foundation or the ASPCA in his name, as they were causes he cared deeply about. Despite his struggles, Gregory had a successful career and left a lasting impact on those who knew him. He will be remembered for his talent, humor, and kind heart.
