David Gail, known for his role in Beverly Hills 90210, passed away and his mother shared the tragic news and cause of death.

The tragic passing of David Gail has been officially confirmed by his mother. The beloved actor, known for his roles in Beverly Hills 90210 and General Hospital spin-off Port Charles, passed away at the age of 58. His sister, Katie Colmenares, first announced his death last month, and it was later revealed that he had suffered complications from sudden cardiac arrest.

In a statement from his mother, Mary Painter, it was revealed that David's cause of death was due to brain and heart complications following a drug overdose on January 16. She expressed her heartbreak over the loss of her son, explaining that he had been relying on medication for many years due to multiple surgeries on his hands and wrists. This had left him in constant pain, leading to his disability and dependence on pain medication.

Despite his struggles, David had tried to find alternative methods of pain management, including acupuncture and natural medicines. However, it seems that his past dependence on opioids may have played a role in his decision to self-medicate. His official cause of death was anoxic-ischemic encephalopathy after being resuscitated from a cardio pulmonary arrest caused by the drug overdose.

Emergency services had found David unresponsive and did their best to save his life, but he was ultimately put on life support for several days before passing away. His sister paid tribute to him in a heartfelt post, describing him as her wingman and best friend who was always by her side.

David's career in the entertainment industry was a successful one, with his breakout role as a bellhop named Tom in Beverly Hills 90210. He later returned to the show as Stuart, and also made appearances in other popular series such as Growing Pains, Murder, She Wrote, ER, and Matlock. Fans will also remember him as Dr Joe Scanlon in the General Hospital spin-off Port Charles.
