Terribly sad news this morning that Billy Miller has died at age 43.

He won three Daytime Emmy Awards for his work on “General Hospital” and “The Young and the Restless.” He debuted on “All My Children.” On “Y&R” he had a brutally depressing storyline when his character’s child was killed in a car accident.

Miller also appeared in Clint Eastwood’s “American Sniper,” and also had roles recently on “NCIS” and “Suits.”

He had no credits in 2023. According to reports he’d been suffering from bipolar disease and a neurological condition called PSP. It was reported that he died from a stroke.

Miller was a fan favorite and very popular. He will be missed. There’s an outpouring of messages from his colleagues on Twitter X. Sincere condolences to his family and friends.
