Ryan Seacrest took to social media to share the sad news that his father, Gary Seacrest, had passed away at the age of 81. Gary had been fighting prostate cancer for quite some time. He leaves behind his wife, Connie, and his two children, Ryan and Meredith. Ryan's post was filled with love and gratitude, calling his dad his best friend and a devoted family man.

Gary's battle with cancer was not an easy one. Ryan had previously mentioned that his father had been dealing with the disease for several years. Despite initial hopes that the cancer was no longer detectable, it unfortunately returned and worsened. Gary even had to deal with pneumonia while undergoing chemotherapy, which left him in the ICU for weeks.

Ryan's mother, Connie, has also faced her own struggles with cancer but is currently in remission. Ryan's emotional broadcast back in July highlighted the tough reality of cancer and its treatments. He spoke about the difficulty of seeing a parent suffer and the confusion that comes with trying to understand medical advice.

In his Instagram post, Ryan shared several photos of him and his father, capturing precious moments of their time together. He expressed his heartbreak but also found comfort in knowing that his father was no longer in pain. Ryan's words were a touching tribute to a man who was not only a loving father but also a devoted husband and grandfather.
