Hollywood actor Thomas Mikal Ford has lost a medical battle following a short stint on life support. The memorable “Martin” actor passed away Wednesday (October 12) at 52.

Ford’s family and publicist broke the heart-shattering news.

“It is with great sadness that we announce the untimely passing of our beloved Son, father, brother, husband, and friend Tommy Mykhal Ford. On behalf of the family we would like to thank everyone for their love, support and prayers. Funeral arrangements will be forthcoming. Please respect the privacy of the Ford family during our time of grief.”

A few hours ago, reports surfaced about Ford being hospitalized since last Sunday.

He is currently on life support and is not expected to make it through the day. Ford’s wife, Gina, says the family is still praying for him. Tommy starred in all 5 seasons of “Martin” as Martin Lawrence’s level-headed best friend, who often played straight man to Martin’s crazy antics. (TMZ)

Earlier in the day, various celebrities including Ford’s “Martin” co-stars Martin Lawrence and Tichina Arnold publicly reacted to his hospitalization.
