Porn Star, Alex Riley’s Death At 22 Years Of Age Rocks The Adult Film Industry

Friends, fans and fellow gay adult industry insiders of Alex Riley were stunned to learn this week about the young performer’s death.

The award-winning performer reportedly passed away at the age of 22. By all accounts, Riley was beloved within the gay adult industry, winning awards at multiple events including GayVN’s Best Newcomer in 2020.

Close friends of Riley, including his longtime boyfriend and fellow performer Jacob Hansen, began posting on social media about his passing late Wednesday night, and tributes have continued to pour in all morning. Riley’s cause of death has not yet been made public.

His boyfriend, Hansen shared photos of the couple and expressed his love, writing, “To all of Alex’s friends and fans.. On Monday I got a phone call from Alex’s best friend that Alex passed away early Sunday Morning. Rest In peace babe you will always be part of me no matter where my life takes me.”

In a subsequent post, he wrote: “You are my dearest friend, my deepest love. You are the very best of me. I know you’ll always be right next to me until we see each other again.”

In a statement from Helix Studios—where Riley has been performing exclusively since 2019—the studio wrote, “We are heartbroken over the loss of Alex Riley. One of the most vibrant and talented young performers we’ve ever had the privilege to work with. Please respect his family’s privacy during this devastatingly difficult time. We love you, rest in peace Alex.”

Other performers have also reacted to the news of the model’s untimely passing:

Before joining Helix in 2019, Riley performed in scenes at Men, FraternityX, RealityDudes, and NextDoor. Riley was nominated as Best Newcomer at the 2020 Str8UpGayPorn Awards, and he went on to win GayVN’s Best Newcomer award at their ceremony.
