The father of popular TikTok duo Enkyboys, Randy Gonzalez, has passed away. His age was given as 35. Gonzalez reportedly passed away on Wednesday morning from colon cancer. Gonzalez, who chronicled his struggle on social media, announced his illness last April, informing supporters that he had been diagnosed about six months early and had two to three years to live.
Gonzalez said at the time that he could live another five years with the help of chemotherapy. After claiming that he was denied treatment at the University of Texas Cancer Center because they wouldn’t accept his insurance, the popular TikTok star began a GoFundMe to raise money for his medical expenses.
Gonzalez and his son Brice, then age 6, used their popular YouTube channel to raise money and awareness for colon cancer research. In December, Gonzalez gave his supporters an update on his condition, saying his therapies were progressing well.
Gonzalez, who was joined in the video by Brice and his wife, added:
“It goes well,” “Except I have to change my chemo because it’s not working right now, but I feel good.” And he continued, “I’m just glad we’re back in Texas with the family.”
Both of Gonzalez’s daughters appeared in the film as the family got ready for the approaching Christmas celebration. The app’s most popular user has apologized for the lack of new content, saying the star’s chronic health issues are to blame.

Brice has also appeared in the NBC sitcom Lopez vs. Lopez as Chance, the humorous grandson of George Lopez, where he made viewers giggle. Lopez posted a message of condolence for Gonzalez on Instagram on Wednesday.
“My sincere condolences to Brice and the entire Gonzalez family. The love and bond Randy had for his son and his family was undeniable, you can see it in every video. He will be missed, but never forgotten” Lopez wrote. “My heart goes out to the whole family.”
Lopez recently discussed his role as TV grandpa to 6-year-old Brice and his success with Entertainment Tonight.
“The fact that my grandchild on the show has 17 million TikTok followers is disheartening for me as an artist,” joked the comedian. “But no, I mean, I’m also a grandfather on the show, so until Mayan gets pregnant, we’re just going to do this.”
Mayan, Lopez’s real-life daughter and Lopez’s TV daughter, commented:
“I didn’t even see myself as a TV mom,”
“Now it’s like I’m very single, but I’ve always been very maternal, so even like on set — I mean, he’s great, Brice Gonzalez. He’s half of the Enkyboys on TikTok and he’s just the cutest little thing.
