Awful news.
Just last week, the news emerged that EastEnders legend, Derek Martin, had sadly died.
Now, his son has tragically passed away also.
Confirming the news, BBB Agency wrote: “Devastating news today. Just after losing his father. David has also passed away. The gentle giant whose heart was as big as he was. I couldn’t have wished for a better friend or workmate.
“Rest in peace, David Rapp you will be missed! BBB HQ will never be the same.”
The news comes just two weeks after tributes were paid to Derek Martin.
EastEnders wrote: “We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Derek Martin. From the moment he arrived, Derek’s portrayal of Charlie Slater instantly cemented him in the hearts of the audience, as the head of one of EastEnders most iconic families.
“Charlie would do anything for his family, and much like his character, Derek would do the same for those around him. Derek was deeply loved by all those that worked with him at EastEnders and will always be remembered with great fondness.
“Our love and thoughts are with his family and friends.”
