Coronary artery disease killed actor Ray MacDonald

The well-known Thai actor and travel content creator Ray MacDonald, who died suddenly on Wednesday at age 49, was suffering from triple-vessel coronary artery disease, according to his wife and close friends.

An autopsy on Wednesday found two of the actor’s arteries were 90% blocked and the other one was 70% blocked, said fellow actor Shahkrit Yamnam, speaking on Thursday at the Institute of Forensic Medicine in Bangkok.

Home security video showed the award-winning actor taking a seat on a downstairs sofa before adjusting slightly as if to find a more accommodating position in the early hours of Wednesday. His wife found him dead in that position at 6.30am.
