Trending Now

Alec Musser, known for roles in 'Desperate Housewives' and 'Grown Ups,' has passed away at the age of 50. He died peacefully at his home in California, as confirmed by his fiancée, Paige Press, and his uncle, Robert, to TMZ. The cause of death has not been disclosed.

Alec Musser was particularly recognized for his work in the American TV series 'All My Children,' where he appeared in 43 episodes between 2005 and 2007.

His resume also includes roles in 'Desperate Housewives' and the film 'Grown Ups.' In the latter, titled 'Grown Ups' in its original version, he had a minor role at a water park, acting alongside Adam Sandler, who paid tribute to him in an Instagram post.

"I loved this guy. Can't believe he's gone. He was such a wonderful, funny, and good man. Sending thoughts to Alec Musser and his family, and all my love," Sandler wrote, sharing an image of Musser from the film.

In 'Desperate Housewives,' he appeared in the third episode of season eight, playing Renee's (played by Vanessa Williams) masseur Friedrich, in whom she shows a clear interest. Their moment, however, is disrupted by Lee (played by Kevin Rahm), who barges in and mistakenly thinks the masseur is gay.
