As his death took fans by shock, it has been revealed that the man who had been an inspiration for many, actually committed suicide.

The death of former 'My 600-lb Life' star LB Bonner was a case of suicide, according to the Lexington County Coroner’s Office in South Carolina. Bonner was reportedly found dead last Thursday with a "single gunshot wound to (the) head" in a ditch in a Lexington park.

He had also shared a photo of the late Robin Williams, which had the quote on it: "Everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. Be Kind. ALWAYS.” He captioned the photo as, "This is so true, step out your comfort zone to be kind.”
