He was in France filming a show and was found by his friend and fellow chef Eric Ripert, one of the greatest French chefs. Horrible. He leaves an 11-year-old daughter.

Just days after fashion icon Kate Spade was declared dead by suicide, celebrity chef and host of CNN’s hit show “Parts Unknown,” Anthony Bourdain, was found dead in his hotel room in France by an apparent suicide. He was 61.
CNN host Brian Stelter announced on Friday that friends of the celebrity chef discovered he had hung himself. No details have been provided as to whether a note had been left.
“Anthony was found dead this morning in his hotel room in France. He had hung himself, in his hotel room,” Stelter said.
Here he is talking with Anderson Cooper about the work he just completed in Hong Kong with his girlfriend Asia Argento, who had been one of Harvey Weinstein’s victims.
