This week it was reported that actor Lance Reddick died from heart disease at age 61 [click here if you missed that].
Reps for Lance dispute the reports...
From People
Hours after the initial report, Reddick's attorney James Hornstein issued a statement to PEOPLE.
"I have represented Lance Reddick for many years and continue to represent his wife Stephanie. The coroner statement on the death certificate is not a result of an autopsy. No autopsy was performed on Lance. To my knowledge, no medical examination of Lance during his lifetime ever indicated such conditions," read the statement.
"Lance was the most physically fit person I've ever known," Hornstein continued. "He exercised daily at his home gym, including extensive cardio work, and the availability of gym facilities was a contractual requirement for his work away from home. He ate as if a dietician was monitoring his every meal. The information appearing on the death certificate is wholly inconsistent with his lifestyle."
The statement concluded, "On behalf of Stephanie Reddick, the death certificate information is not corroborated and is inconsistent with the facts known to the family."
TMZ's report additionally reported that that Reddick, who was 60, will be cremated — though Hornstein did not comment on that matter."
