On June 6, the 47-year-old actor was found unconscious by his girlfriend at her apartment. At the time, his agent, Annette Walsh said:

“It’s with sadness I confirm the passing of Alan O’Neill, a brilliant funny and kind human being. My thoughts are with his partner, children, family and friends at this time. I’ll personally miss knowing Alan isn’t sharing the planet with us any longer, despite the miles between L.A. and Dublin. Alan was only ever a phone call away. May he rest in peace.”
