Clark Gable’s grandson Clark Gable III has died at his Texas home at age 30, his family told TMZ Friday.

According to the celebrity gossip site, the actor, model and TV host was found dead in his bed by his fiancé Friday morning. The cause of death is unclear. Gable's relatives didn't immediately respond to Fox News' request for comment.

His mother, Tracy Yarro Scheff, also confirmed the death on Instagram.

“It’s is with an extremely heavy heart we say goodbye to my beautiful son Clark,” she wrote. "He passed this morning. I will always be next to you my beautiful son. Mom.”

Kayley Gable, his sister, shared the tragic news on Facebook.

"My brother was found unresponsive this morning by his fiancé and didn't wake up," she wrote on Facebook. "I LOVE YOU CLARKIE I'm so sorry we couldn't save you my heart is broken and shattered RIP."

Gable is best known for being the host of the reality show “Cheaters” in Seasons 13 and 14.

Gable’s official website revealed he embarked on a modeling career at age 5 and later studied at the New York Film Academy after completing his first film in Italy. While he was often compared to his famous grandfather, known as “the King of Hollywood” during his reign, Gable wanted to be recognized for his own work.

“Acting in films — It’s in my blood, and I really want to do it just like my grandfather,” he shared on his page. “But I don’t want to be compared to him in any way because I am different. I just happen to be born into these great circumstances, so I feel it gives me a great opportunity for what I want to do.”

The author simply misspelled it.

I read the book at the time. The movie couldn’t hold my attention.

Violante Placido is her daughter, and you can really see the resemblance. Violante was in The American, which I liked, and that Ghost Rider sequel.

“The author simply misspelled it.”

Then one has to assume that his sister does not know the difference. She misspelled it in exactly the same way.

No reflection on him (RIP), but that show is so goofy: “Our operatives set up a perimeter...”.

The funniest thing about that show was when “The Simpsons” spoofed it; Homer was cheating on a diet, and rented a motel room. While they are watching on hidden cameras, he brings in a heavily-dressed “woman” with a hat that turns out to be a huge kebab skewer with a wig, sunglasses, and a raincoat - and he rolls around on the bed and showers with it while he eats it. I never saw the real show when I saw that Simpsons episode, and it made recalling it even funnier; they eventually confront him in a restaurant while he’s pigging out - alone.

perhaps they used spell check and it didn’t know the difference?

Don’t disregard “undiagnosed heart condition” so easily. I have a brother-in-law who was a healthy and very active person, passed the entry physical for the USAF and during basic training in Texas he collapsed during a run, and he was quite use to running and a skinny guy. He was taken to the hospital, where they discovered he had a heart problem that just decided to act up. He was medically discharged from the USAF a couple of months later.

I’ve also had experiences with young, physically fit lieutenants in a couple of different units who also died from undiagnosed heart problems. And one of them was a West Point graduate, thus in very good physical condition.

from the DM article in #17:

“Scheff revealed that Gable had sought therapy for addiction in the past,”

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, for example.
