TIKTOK star Randy Gonzalez, one half of the beloved social media duo Enkyboys, has died at age 35 following a long battle with colon cancer.
Gonzalez died on Wednesday in hospice after he was diagnosed with the disease in 2021 and given two to three years to live, sources close to the family told TMZ.
The viral TikTok star, who shared the account with his adorable son Brice, broke the news of his diagnosis to his followers last April, explaining that doctors gave him a limited time to live.
Gonzalez created a GoFundMe to help pay for his chemotherapy treatment, which could've extended his life by five more years.
He gave his 1.4million Instagram followers an update last November, detailing his progress and treatment over the last few months.
Gonzalez and Brice used their social media platforms to spread awareness about colon cancer.

The father-son duo is beloved on social media for their hilarious TikTok and Instagram content.

A third fan added: "RIP to Randy Gonzalez, the father of the very popular Tiktok duo Enkyboys after his battle with cancer for a year.
"The father son videos during Covid and Trump protests were a source of entertainment for us, especially his talented son."
"Rip I pray god gives your family the strength to get through this difficult time," a different fan said.
"Thank you for all the laughs with the videos of you and your family.
"Those are the memories that will live forever."
A now-heartbreaking final TikTok shows the two joking about Brice traveling from California to Texas to see his dad.
Brice apparently went back and forth between the states a lot as he actually landed a role on the George Lopez spin-off show Lopez vs Lopez.
"I'm in California because I'm doing a show with George Lopez," Brice previously said in a video. He was holding back his tears because he was missing his parents at the time.
He said that he was spending two weeks with his grandmother in California while his parents were in Texas for Randy's chemotherapy.
