Former actor Chad McQueen has passed away at the age of 63.
Chad McQueen, known for his role as Dutch in the “Karate Kid” movies, died at his ranch in Palm Desert, California.
According to his longtime attorney, Arthur Barens, Chad McQueen died on Wednesday, September 13, 2024, due to organ failure. He was surrounded by his children, his life partner, and his attorney at the time of his passing.
Insiders say that Chad McQueen had sustained an injury a few years ago, which led to gradual organ failure and eventually contributed to his death.
Chad McQueen was a father to Steven, Chase, and Madison McQueen. Steven announced their father’s passing on Instagram with a heartfelt tribute.
He wrote, “His remarkable journey as a loving father to us, along with his unwavering commitment to our mother, truly showed a life filled with love and dedication.”
Steven mentioned that his father, a professional racer, had a huge influence on his life. His own passion for racing not only displayed his exceptional skill but also honored his father’s legacy. This passion mirrored the values that were deeply instilled in Chad McQueen.
Steven added, “He passed his passion, knowledge, and dedication down to us, and we will continue not only his legacy but also our grandfather’s.”
He mentioned that the family is navigating this difficult time and has asked for privacy as they remember and celebrate Chad’s remarkable life.
Users responded to Steven’s post with an outpouring of love and prayers for the family. One user wrote, “Chad will always be missed. Love you guys,” while another fan shared, “Truly heartbroken. He was a kind and caring gentleman.”
Another heartfelt comment read, “Oh my god. Just woke up to this terrible and sad news. I genuinely feel like I’ve lost a member of my own family. I just don’t know what to say other than I’m so blessed to have met him, and my thoughts are with the entire McQueen family. Rest in peace, mate.”
Fans remember Chad as Dutch in “Karate Kid” and its 1986 sequel, “Karate Kid II.” He was the only son of the legendary actor Steve McQueen and admired his father deeply. Chad’s love for motorcycles started early, with his dad introducing him to riding when he was just six years old.
Chad shared, “I started racing at nine. It was our way of bonding and spending weekends together—not throwing a ball around but racing motorcycles. I looked up to my dad and wanted to be as fast as he was.”
Chad admitted he loved racetrack racing despite its risks, noting that he saw people getting hurt or even losing their lives. “I was surrounded by two things: film and motorsports, and motorsports always seemed to attract me more,” he said.
Now, the founder of McQueen Racing has passed away, but his influence on the racing world continues through his fans and his son, who has spoken about the deep impact it had on his own life.
