Father of Popular TikTok Duo Enkyboys, Randy Gonzalez, Passes Away at 35 After Battle with Colon Cancer

Randy Gonzalez, the father of the popular TikTok duo Enkyboys, has passed away at the age of 35 after a battle with colon cancer. His brother, David Gonzalez, confirmed the news to CBS News on Thursday.

Randy and his 7-year-old son Brice had gained a massive following on social media, with 15 million followers on TikTok, through their endearing videos together and with the rest of their family.

Randy first revealed his advanced colon cancer diagnosis in April and was hopeful that chemotherapy could extend his life. He was originally given two to three years to live, but doctors told him that chemotherapy would extend his life up to five more years. Despite his diagnosis, Randy continued to produce videos with Brice while raising awareness of colon cancer.

Comedian George Lopez, whose “Lopez vs Lopez” sitcom on NBC recently cast Brice, mourned the death of the boy’s father on Instagram. David Gonzalez told CBS News that his brother was put in hospice care last week and that he died Wednesday.

Randy Gonzalez’s death has been met with an outpouring of love and support from his family, friends, and fans. His legacy of raising awareness of colon cancer and creating endearing videos with his son will live on.
