Gay porn's biggest star was found dead at age 44 following a 'simple accident' at home.
The death of Marcel Bonn - better known by his stage name Tim Kruger - was announced on Saturday in a heartbreaking post from his longtime partner, Grobes Geraet.
The news was published on the social media channels of Kruger's website TimTales, which is one of the biggest sites and production companies in the gay porn industry.
Specific details weren't given, although Geraet made sure to emphasize that Kruger's death wasn't the result of drug use or foul play.
'It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share the news of the passing of our beloved Marcel, the man you all knew and loved as Tim Kruger,' the statement began.
'To the public, he was the ultimate ginger pornstar; to me, he was a sweet, caring partner of over 20 years. He was also my best friend. He touched the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him,' it continued.
Geraet then shared a vague cause of death, calling it an 'accident.'
'I am very aware of the stigma that surrounds deaths in the porn industry, so let me make this very clear to hopefully cut down on the inevitable speculation: Tim's death was a tragic, yet simple accident at home,' he wrote.
