“I just heard about the passing of Julian McMahon and I’ve gotten a lot of really nice messages on Instagram and I just checked ‘cause I was just told and I was trying to verify it, right? Because people can say stuff like that, but it looks to be true — and oh, my gosh, I’m completely shocked and saddened by it,” she said in the footage.
“I didn’t know he wasn’t well for a while. But I will say my heart goes out to Kelly, his wife, his daughter and Brooke Burns, his ex-wife, who they remain close friends and raise their daughter together and I think he has a sister…”

The actress went on to add that she didn’t blame any fans of the show and of McMahon for feeling equally upset about the news and noted she found solace in the fact he had enjoyed a good life.
