Actress Kelley Mack Dies Peacefully at 33 After Battle with Cancer
So, there’s some really heartbreaking news making headlines right now — actress Kelley Mack, who you might recognize from her role as Addy in The Walking Dead , has passed away at just 33 years old.
Her death was confirmed earlier this week by her sister, Kathryn Klebenow, who shared the news on Instagram. According to the post, Kelley passed away peacefully on Saturday night, surrounded by her mother, Kristen, and her aunt, Karen. It was a quiet and intimate moment, but the loss is echoing loudly for her loved ones and fans around the world. Kathryn wrote that the depth of grief and how much Kelley will be missed can’t even be put into words.
Kelley Mack, whose full name was Kelley Lynne Klebenow, had been battling a very aggressive form of brain cancer known as a central nervous system glioma. This type of tumor forms in the brain and spinal cord — and in her case, it severely impacted her mobility. She had publicly revealed her diagnosis earlier this year, and as the illness progressed, she had lost the use of her right leg and much of her left.

Despite everything she was going through, Kelley continued to work in the film industry. She wasn't just an actress — she was also a voiceover artist and even an executive producer on several projects. One of her final works includes a feature film titled Universal , where she played a lead role. That movie is still set to be released, which now gives it even deeper emotional weight for fans and colleagues alike.
She was born in Cincinnati, Ohio, in July 1992, and had carved out a career that, while still emerging, left a lasting impression. Besides The Walking Dead , she appeared in shows like 9-1-1 and Chicago Med , gaining recognition for her thoughtful performances and on-screen presence.
There’s going to be a celebration of her life on August 16th back in her hometown in Ohio — a moment for those who loved her, worked with her, or were moved by her performances to remember the vibrant soul she was.
What’s especially touching is that her family shared that some people have already felt her presence in the form of butterflies — like she’s still finding a way to be near, even now. It’s just one of those small, poetic details that hits you in the heart.
Honestly, it’s such a sad loss. She was so young, so talented, and clearly deeply loved. May she rest in peace.
