Kilmer died at his Los Angeles home after a bout with pneumonia, his daughter confirmed. He was 65.

Prior to the actor’s death, he struggled with a six-year battle with throat cancer after being diagnosed in 2015.

The condition had affected his ability to speak due to chemotherapy and radiation therapy, which required two tracheotomies.

In an interview with the Tampa Bay Times, the actor revealed that he “learned he was getting a divorce while watching CNN in a hotel room.”

“It was no fun,” the actor recalled of the experience at the time.

Kilmer called his divorce “the second most expensive in New Mexico,” saying that it happened “only two months after the birth of their second child.”
