The star’s death was first reported by TMZ. People later confirmed the report. HuffPost has not independently confirmed Warner’s passing but has reached out to his team for verification.
Warner was best known for playing the son of Bill Cosby’s character in The Cosby Show sitcom from the 1980s before moving on to other TV gigs. Despite the many sexual misconduct allegations against Cosby, Warner expressed in 2023 that he was still “proud of the legacy” the show built and the impact it had on “first and foremost, Black culture.”
Warner is survived by a wife and daughter, whose identities he opted to keep private
