On Tuesday, five days after he was discovered in his bed in Rochester, Minnesota, on August 11, the Pop Idol actor's family declared his death. In recent years, the Scottish singer-songwriter and actor had stepped away from the spotlight in recent years, but in what would be his last interview in 2017, he spoke openly about the impact of his divorce.

After meeting on the set of his Colourblind music video, the singer rose to fame on the reality show in 2002, with model Jacqui Ainsley helping him start his first public romance in 2002. Darius described their break up as "painful," despite admitting they were still in love when they split after two years together. In 2015, Jacqui married Madonna's ex-husband Guy Ritchie.

Natasha Henstridge, Darius Campbell Danesh's ex wife, has claimed she had "no words" as she wrote a tribute to the late Pop Idol actor after his tragic death on Tuesday. On August 11, the singer was discovered dead in his US apartment room in Rochester, Minnesota, at the age of 41, although the cause of death is unknown. In an emotional Instagram post, the Canadian actress, 48, who was married to the singer from 2011 to 2018, broke silence as she posted a carousel of photographs.
