March 14, 201313 yr From GayPornTimes: The all-male adult industry is still reeling from yesterday’s shocking news that performerWilfried Knight has died. Word began spreading quickly yesterday afternoon that the cause of death was suicide, but we had no official confirmation. Today, Michael Mew, a friend of Mr. Knight, provided more details in a statement posted to Queerty: “The last thing he would want is everyone to think he was a porn-star cliché. He was not: He was not a drug or steroid abuser, and he did not drink like crazy,” writes Mr. Mew. “He was a funny man with a kitschy sense of humour, who was more at home in the outdoors… As many of you do not know, Wilfried’s husband, Jerry Enriquez, took his own life less then two weeks before Wilfried did. Wilfried decided to follow him; taking his own life in the same hotel where they were legally married in up in Vancouver, Canada.” However, the couple struggled in recent months with unemployment and visa issues. “There was no will. Anything that Wilfried and Jerry had [built] together, including their home in Portland, now went to Jerry’s family,” Mr. Mew said. “Their relationship was never formally recognized by the U.S. government, even though they were legally married in Canada and had over eight years of memories and photos together. Up to the end, he expressed how he wished that no couple would have to endure what he and Jerry had to in trying to stay together. They would both be alive today if America had gay marriage. They will be missed.” CLICK HERE for the full statement. As I wrote on Twitter last night, I urge porn fans to place heinous comments to blog stories about Wilfried Knight’s death in perspective.
