Gregory Tyree Boyce and Natalie Adepoju found dead
Twilight actor Gregory Tyree Boyce has been found dead inside his Las Vegas home alongside his girlfriend, Natalie Adepoju.
Their cause of their deaths are still pending.
The Las Vegas Medical Examiners office confirmed the tragic discovery to E! News, telling the outlet that the couple were pronounced dead at Boyce’s condo on May 13.
According to the outlet, it was the actor’s cousin who found the bodies of Boyce, 30, and Adepoju, 27.
“Greg’s cousin woke up and noticed that Greg’s car was still at the house. He was worried because Greg was to be in LA. His cousin went to check on him and found them,” said the source.
Boyce’s mother, Lisa Wayne, penned a tribute on Facebook that revealed her son had considered starting his own restaurant.
“He was in the process of starting a wing business, West Wings. He created the flavors to his perfection and named them after west coast rappers.
Snoop Dog, Kendrick Lamar, Roddy Ricch, The Game, etc,” Wayne wrote.
“He had flavors like, Tequila Lime Agave those were my favorite.
A Hennessy Maple flavor, oh man, just so damn good. I can say that my son was my favorite chef. He was on to something great and that was his passion.”
She added: “Greggy, if I could get my chef on like you, I’d continue this West Wings and set your baby girl up for life. You told me that you didn’t want me to work, you wanted to take care of me.
Hunny, have some of your Tequila Lime Agave wings and your special spaghetti for me. I’m sick without you. I’m torn, I’m lost. I’m in pain.
I’d text you or call you when I was broken or worried about something, and you’d tell me, Ma, I got you, we’ll get thru this together. Boy. Why did you leave me.”
Boyce was known for playing Tyler Crowley in Twilight he was the student who almost hit Bella Swan with his car in the school parking lot before Edward Cullen heroically came in to save her.
The news of Boyce’s passing comes just months after he said he didn’t think he’d live past the age of 30.
“At one point I didn’t think I would make it to see 30 years old,” he wrote on Instagram on his birthday back in December.
“Over the years like everyone else I have made mistakes along the way, but today is one of those days I only reflect on the great ones.
