Phil Robertson, the famously bearded patriarch of the hit reality series Duck Dynasty, died on Sunday, 26 May 2025, aged 79. He passed away at home in West Monroe, Louisiana, surrounded by his family, who confirmed his death with a heartfelt public statement. The cause of death hasn't been disclosed, though it follows years of reported health struggles.
Robertson became a household name thanks to Duck Dynasty, which ran from 2012 to 2017 on A&E and chronicled the lives of his tight-knit family and their duck call business, Duck Commander. It made Phil, a devout Christian, a lifelong hunter, and an accidental reality star, one of the most recognisable faces on American TV for half a decade.
