Cameron Boyce’s death hit the world hard in 2019, touching the lives of fans and celebs alike. Actor Karan Brar recently opened up about just how hard it was to lose his good friend—and how his life has been changed since. Karan, who starred alongside Cameron on the Disney Channel series Jessie, sat down with Jennette McCurdy for an episode of her podcast, Empty Inside. Over the course of the hour-long segment, they discussed the highs and lows of being a child star, while also touching upon the subject of loss.
Jennette, who starred on iCarly and Sam & Cat, asked Karan about how his world has been altered since losing Cameron almost two years ago. The Jessie star had a lot to say, noting that the loss was incredibly life-changing. “I think losing Cameron shifted everything in my life on its axis, and that was incredibly destabilizing,” he explained, adding that his perspective on everything was suddenly flipped around. Cameron passed away in July 2019 due to an epileptic seizure. Since his death, his friends and family have worked hard to keep his memory alive and celebrate the things he stood for, between sharing touching tributes and creating a charitable organization in his honor.
