24 and Timeless actress Annie Wersching has died at the age of 45 following a battle with cancer.
The star - known for playing FBI agent Renee Walker in seasons seven and eight of 24 - was diagnosed in mid-2020 and succumbed to the disease in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Wersching's husband Stephen Full said in a statement: "There is a cavernous hole in the soul of this family today. But she left us the tools to fill it. She found wonder in the simplest moment. She didn't require music to dance. She taught us not to wait for adventure to find you. 'Go find it. It's everywhere.' And find it we shall.
"As I drove our boys, the true loves of her life, down the winding driveway and street, she would yell BYE! until we were out of earshot and into the world. I can still hear it ringing. Bye my Buddie. 'I love you little family...'"
24 star and exec producer Kiefer Sutherland said: "The world lost a light today. @Wersching was one of the greatest actors I've ever had the pleasure of working with, and my friend. My heart breaks for her young family. May she be remembered for the beautiful person that she was."
Wersching is survived by Full and three children.
