Twilight star Gregory Tyree Boyce has sadly passed away aged 30
Gregory Tyree Boyce, who played Tyler Crowley in the Twilight movie franchise, has sadly passed away at the age of 30, along with his 27-year-old girlfriend, Natalie Adepoju, according to reports from local news sources. Police have said it was not a criminal incident and said that toxicology results are being awaited by the coroner.
Gregory's character in the film series is best remembered for almost crashing his van into Kristen Stewart's character, Bella, before she's rescued by Edward, played by Robert Pattinson. It's currently unclear how Gregory and Natalie passed away, only that they were found together in their Las Vegas home.
Leading the tributes on social media, Gregory's mother, Lisa Wayne, shared how in recent years her son and his partner had turned their attentions to starting their own food company, West Wings, specialising in chicken wings named after rap legends, such as Snoop Dogg and Kendrick Lamar. Lisa wrote on her Facebook page that Gregory "earned his wings" on 13 May.
Sharing her grief, Lisa said, "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?
"Never another hug, kiss or to hear those words, I love you again. I'm broken. I love you Greggy, my Hunny."
Gregory's brother, Chris Wayne, also posted a tribute to his brother, writing, "You were my baby. Worried about you all the time. I was always there for the rescue. I wish you were still here bro. The world lost an awesome person."
Happy Mother's Day again to my right hand/ my roll dog/ my Queen! Love you 💙💙

Chris' partner, Stephanie Nicole Mercado, shared a collection of photos of herself, Chris and Greg, sharing that her children would miss their uncle. "My heart is completely broken. My brother and one of my best friends is gone. I love and miss you so much already Greggy. You were such a beautiful person, charming, talented and the life of the party every where you went. You loved people and judged no one."
"You have treated me like your sister since the night I met you and Chris. It will always be one of the best days of my life. We had so much fun together. You were an amazing uncle and loved my kids like they were your own."
Our thoughts are with both Gregory and Natalie's families at this sad time.
