A medical report released today revealed what caused Julian McMahon’s death at 56.

A medical report obtained by People on Thursday has revealed that actor Julian McMahon died from lung metastasis resulting from head and neck metastatic cancer. He was 56. The news was confirmed to Deadline by McMahon‘s wife, Kelly Paniagua, who earlier revealed that he died on July 4 after a private cancer battle. McMahon was born to Sir William McMahon, the 20th prime minister of Australia, and started his career as a model and actor in Australia before heading to Hollywood. McMahon made his Hollywood debut on the soap opera Another World. He is also known for starring as Cole Turner in the drama Charmed and Jess LaCroix in FBI: Most Wanted. On hearing of his death, his Nip/Tuck co-star Dylan Walsh paid tribute to his late friend: “Dear Jules, I know you like to flout the boundaries but this time you’ve gone too far,” the New York Post reports. McMahon was married to actress and singer Dannii Minogue and Baywatch star Brooke Burns, with whom he shared a daughter, before marrying Paniagua in 2014 after 10 years of dating.
