Kristoff St. John made a name for himself portraying the character of Neil Winters on the daytime soap opera The Young and the Restless from 1991 to 2019. For the role, he earned eleven Daytime Emmy Award nominations, two Emmy Awards, and ten NAACP Image Awards. He suffered tremendous heartbreak after the 2014 suicide of his 24-year-old son Julian, who died during a stay at a mental health hospital in Long Beach, California. St. John was found dead at his Woodland Hills home in Los Angeles on February 3. A Los Angeles coroner ruled the actor died from heart disease and alcohol was a contributing factor. He was 52-years-old.
