Cormac Roth (1996-2022) is dead. The son of British actor Tim Roth (61) died at the age of just 25. This is confirmed by his family in a statement that is available, among other things, to the industry magazine “Variety”. The musician died on October 16 as a result of cancer.
Roth was wild and energetic, “and his spirit was filled with light and goodness.” The musician had “a gentle soul” and brought a lot of joy and hope to everyone around him. “The sorrow comes in waves, as do the tears and laughter” when the family thinks of the 25 years and 10 months “we have known him,” the statement continued.
Tim Roth’s son Cormac is from the actor’s marriage to Nikki Butler, who have been married since 1993. The couple also have another son, Hunter. Cormac was an “irresistible, joyful, wild and wonderful child”. The family will always carry him with them wherever they go: “We love him.”
In July, Cormac Roth made the disease, which was diagnosed in November 2021, public on Instagram. He had been fighting every day since then with all conceivable means such as chemotherapy and medication, he wrote at the time. By that time, he said he had lost half his hearing and around 60 pounds in weight. “Life is short. It’s chaos,” Roth continued. You should do the things you love.
