Hollywood actor Cody Longo, known for his roles in *Hollywood Heights* and *Days of Our Lives*, has died at the age of 34. His representative, Alex Gittelson, told CNN on Friday that Longo was found dead at his home in Austin, Texas, on Wednesday. The cause of death has not yet been confirmed.
Longo was born on March 4, 1988, in Littleton, Colorado. He began his entertainment career in 2009 with roles in *Ball Don’t Lie*, *Medium*, *Bring It On: Fight to the Finish*, and the *Fame* reboot. He later appeared in several episodes of *Make It or Break It*, *Days of Our Lives*, *CSI: NY*, and *Nashville*, according to *The Hollywood Reporter*.
In a statement to *THR*, Gittelson said, “Cody was a dear friend, going back many years before he was a client. My heart breaks for his amazing wife and beautiful kids.” Longo’s wife, Stephanie, expressed her grief, saying, “Cody was our whole world. The kids and I are shattered and beyond devastated. He was the best dad and father. We will always and forever miss you and love you.” Gittelson added that Longo had taken time away from acting to pursue his music career and spend more time with his family in Nashville, but he was excited to return to acting this year. He described Longo as “loyal, loving and talented,” and said he would be greatly missed.
When he wasn’t acting, Longo focused on his music, releasing several singles, including his most popular song, “She Said.”
