Kirk Medas, reality star from MTV’s Floribama Shore, has died. He was 33. 

Medas died Friday following complications with liver failure, his father told TMZ. 

“We are deeply saddened to learn of the tragic passing of Kirk Medas, a beloved member of the Floribama Shore family,” an MTV spokesperson shared in a statement to THR. “Our hearts go out to his family, friends and fans during this difficult time.”

Medas joined the cast of Floribama Shore’s first season in 2017. He starred in the series during its four-season run on MTV before it was canceled. He was one of the show’s main castmembers alongside Aimee Hall, Nilsa Prowant, Jeremiah Buoni, Codi Butts, Kortni Gilson, Candace Rice and Gus Smyrnios. 

Alongside Prowant, Hall and Buoni, Medas was featured in a special Fear Factor episode where the Floribama Shore cast competed against Jersey Shore: Family Vacation’s Deena Nicole Cortese, Snooki, Pauly D and Ronnie Ortiz-Magro. He also appeared in the comedy miniseries Everybody Hates Kyle in 2022. 

On Thursday, Floribama Shore star Hall shared on Instagram that her “friend Kirk has been in the ICU for over two weeks now, battling a severe case of necrotizing pancreatitis.” There, she also shared a GoFundMe to aid with Medas’ “overwhelming expenses,” which fellow co-star Prowant also posted on her Instagram profile. 

Following the news of Medas’ death, Hall posted a tribute where she wrote that she had “lost a brother, a best friend and heaven gained the most beautiful angel.”

“We are all trying to process this unimaginable loss. Kirk was the glue that held us all together. He loved each and every one of us so deeply, with a heart bigger than this world,” she wrote in the caption of the post. “One sweet day, I know we’ll all be together again. Until then, I’ll miss him every single day.”
