Actor in “Lioness”, “The Holiday Proposal” – Plan was 30

Mike Heslin, actor in Taylor Sheridan’s action drama lionesshad died. He was 30.

His husband, Scotty Dynamo (born Nicolas James Wilson), said on Instagram that Heslin died of an unexpected heart attack on Tuesday after a week-long battle in hospital. “Michael was young and in excellent health and the doctors have no explanation for what happened,” he wrote.

Heslin played Polo in two episodes of lioness Season one, which also starred Zoe Saldana and Nicole Kidman. He has also had roles in The holiday proposal plan, Younger, The Influencers, 7 deadly sins And You are never alone.

“Michael was brilliant, selfless, talented and a true guardian angel,” his husband wrote in a tribute. “He single-handedly carried me through several stages of cancer. He was the first person everyone called to share good news and he was the perfect person to call when you needed a shoulder to lean on or the best advice. He was truly the sweetest, most caring and loving man on earth and he brought out the absolute best in everyone whose path crossed his. He walked through life with such ease and confidence and made everyone around him a better version of themselves. No matter how difficult things got, we knew there was nothing we couldn’t overcome with Mike by our side.”

Dynamo also shared several photos of himself and Heslin in the post, including pictures from their wedding day in November last year.

“Just a week ago, we were still in the early stages of starting a family and regularly exchanged our favorite names for our future children,” he said. “You always told me that you felt you were destined to be a father, and I couldn’t agree more. You would be the most perfect father in the world. If I ever become a father, I will name my son after you and hope that I manage to raise him to be at least half as good a man as you.”

Dynamo continued, “You have been the most generous and giving person. It gives me comfort to know that through your desire to be a donor, you have given the gift of life to four different families. There are still 3 weeks until your birthday and 4 months until our first wedding anniversary, but I know you are in a better place and that heaven has gained another angel.”
