Superstar comedian Robin Williams has passed away at 63.

An “apparent suicide” is being cited as his cause of death.

He was found dead at his home in Tiburon, California this morning, according to the Marin County Sheriff’s Office Coroner Division.

His heartbreaking last Instagram photo was of his daughter, whom he called his ‘baby girl.’ So sad.

Just one week before passing, the actor shared a “throwback” photo dedicated to his daughter, Zelda Rae Williams, in honor of her 25th birthday.  Unbeknownst to his daughter and the world, this would be Robin’s last social media post ever.

In a statement, the late comedian’s wife Susan Schneider reacted to his death, saying:
“…I lost my husband and my best friend, while the world lost one of its most beloved artists and beautiful human beings. I am utterly heartbroken.”
The family also called for fans to focus on the comedian’s life – “On behalf of Robin’s family, we are asking for privacy during our time of profound grief. As he is remembered, it is our hope the focus will not be on Robin’s death, but on the countless moments of joy and laughter he gave to millions.”
The actor who won an Oscar for his role in “Good Will Hunting” has started in various blockbuster movies.

He was the father to one daughter, Zelda Rae, 25, and two sons, Cody Alan, 22, and Zachary Pym, 31.
