Thommy Schiavo dead at 39 after TV star falls to his death from second-floor balcony while drinking with pals in Brazil
A BRAZILIAN TV actor has tragically died after falling off his balcony.
Thommy Schiavo, 39, plummeted to his death after drinking with friends.
The star fell from his second-floor apartment in Brazil‘s Cuiabá on Saturday morning.
The Mato Grosso Police say CCTV footage shows he was on the balcony and went to lie on the floor.
After a few minutes he stood up and lost his balance before tragically falling to his death.
The actor reportedly went to drink with pals at a local spot before returning to his apartment.
Thommy was found face down after falling four metres without apparent injuries, it’s claimed.
The star was last known for his role in the 2021 second season of the Brazilian telenovela, Pantanal.
His character in the show, João Zoinho, had a gay kiss scene with actor Silvero Pereira – a very rare moment on Brazilian TV.
His dad, Horacio Ramos, said his son had only just finished filming a new TV series when the tragic news broke.
He told TV Fronteira: “It’s a painful moment, it hurts so much that there’s no way to explain it.
“We spoke every day, every day it was ‘good morning, good afternoon’, he would call me for anything, I would call him for anything.
“He was such a dear person. Thommy was a fantastic person, loved by everyone.”
Thommy had a one-year-old daughter with his wife Angra Monaliza – a make-up artist who he met on set.
Tributes have been pouring in for the beloved star on social media.
