Anthony Bourdain died by suicide on June 8, 2018. He was found dead by hanging in his hotel room at Le Chambard Hotel in Kaysersberg-Vignoble, France, where he was filming an episode of his show "Parts Unknown." He was 61 years old. His friend and fellow chef Éric Ripert discovered his body after Bourdain missed dinner and breakfast. Toxicology reports showed no narcotics, only trace therapeutic medications. Bourdain had struggled with mental health issues and addiction in the past, which likely contributed to his tragic death.
