Chuck Norris died on Thursday, March 19, aged 86, his family said in a social media statement published the following day, though they did not disclose a cause of death and asked for privacy after his recent hospitalisation in Hawaii. An OK! report also revisited an alleged medical emergency in Nevada in July 2017, when the actor and martial artist suffered two heart attacks in a single day after an appearance in Las Vegas.
Norris had been rushed to hospital in Hawaii shortly before his death was confirmed by relatives on March 20. The family statement was clear about the loss and cautious about the details, stating only that he died peacefully, surrounded by family, which leaves the more dramatic claims in the article firmly in the realm of reported allegation rather than established fact.
