Ian Gelder, 'Game of Thrones' Actor, Dead at 74

Gelder's husband, actor Ben Daniels, shared the news on social media on Monday afternoon.

Daniels -- known for his roles in The Exorcist and Netflix's House of Cards -- said Gelder died Monday afternoon after he was diagnosed with bile duct cancer in December. Daniels closed his touching caption explaining that the photo he posted was taken at Christmas "after I'd got him out of [the] hospital and even though he'd gone through the worst three weeks there you can still see his joy and love shining through." Some of his other TV roles include The Wide World of Mystery, Edward the King, London's Burning, Rumpole of the Bailey and Torchwood: Children of Earth.
