Richard Simmons’ spokesperson, Tom Estey, has spilled the beans on how the flamboyant fitness guru met his unfortunate end. The revelation comes with the kind of drama that only Hollywood could dream up.

So, picture this: on Saturday, July 13, the world lost its sparkle when Richard Simmons, age 76, took his final bow. Now, before you start imagining a dramatic soap opera scene, here’s the scoop: Richard had a bit of a misstep the day before his departure. And it wasn’t a tap dance gone wrong. Turns out, a series of unfortunate tumbles and some pesky heart disease played the main roles in his final act.

Tom Estey, in his best “serious yet slightly amused” tone, shared with People magazine, β€œThis morning, Richard’s brother Lenny got a ring-a-ding from the LA Coroner’s office. They spilled the beans that Richard’s exit was a mix of unfortunate falls and heart disease, with no foul playβ€”unless you count the killer impact of some prescribed medication. The family is sending out big thank-yous for all the love and support during this time. Keep those warm vibes coming!”

Our hearts go out to Richard’s entourage of friends, family, and everyone who ever tried to follow his workout routines without ending up in a heap on the floor.
