Such a sad day for the fans of “True Blood”. Nelsan Ellis, who played the sassy, out and proud Lafayette Reynolds, has died from complications due to heart failure. The actor was 39 years old. #lafayette #trueblood #nelsanellis

He was an amazing addition to that show. Would've stopped watching honestly if it wasn't for him and Skarsgard.

Nelsan was brilliant as Lafayette, great in Secretariat, too damn young to leave this world, he will be missed on screen and off.

One of my favorite characters on any show was him as Lafayette. He was a diva and a tough badass at the same time.

One of the coolest Queers on TV ever. I enjoyed his character, his acting, and his smile will always remind of this show. RIP, and thanks.

Probably the only believable character for the first couple seasons. R.I.P.

What kind of complications can occur from heart failure?
TheBestRussian
Well, ultimately, death, but it's a long way to it. I'm wondering why a 34yo was in heart failure though.
EroticZombiePants
I would guess a variety of problems involving the lack of blood flow.
TheBestRussian
Yes. Poor pumping of the heart - pooling of blood in legs and lungs, difficulty breathing, exercise intolerance, swelling in legs, etc
