This year already, some celebrities have taken their own lives. These are three of them below.

Celebrity DJ and Singer, Ian Alexander, who was the only child of famous Actress Regina King, committed suicide in January, just few days after launching his music career.

Popular South African actor, Patrick Shai, allegedly died by committing suicide in his home in January, and was found by his wife. Shortly before he died, he had suffered heavy backlash from people on social media after he insulted the mother of a popular hip hop artiste named Cassper Nyovest, while threatening to beat him up

Although Patrick Shai had tendered an apology to Cassper and his family online, he was still being bashed by trolls, and this affected him until he took his own life. The actor was 65 years old when he died.
