Dating Show Reality Star Dead at 42: ‘His Passing Was Sudden and Heartbreaking’
Chad Aaron Spodick, who was a contestant on the Logo dating show Finding Prince Charming, which aired in 2016, has passed away.
He was 42.
According to a GoFundMe page set up for his mother, Felicia Harwood, on Thursday December 4, the reality star’s “passing was sudden and heartbreaking, and we are still struggling to comprehend a world without his light.”
“Chad was the type of person who poured himself into others. He lifted up his friends, encouraged everyone around him to grow, to advocate for themselves, and to believe in their own worth,” the page’s creator Kate Werbowski wrote. “The world was brighter with Chad in it, and those who were lucky enough to know him felt the warmth of his heart every day.”
Spodick, a real estate agent in New York City, was one of 13 men vying for the affections of bachelor Robert Sepulveda Jr. on the show, which was hosted by Lance Bass. He quit during the sixth episode.
No cause of death was given.
