Former Diff'rent Strokes star Gary Coleman has died, aged 42, after suffering a brain haemorrhage.
Mr Coleman was hospitalized on Wednesday following a fall at his home in the US state of Utah.
A Utah Valley Regional Medical Center spokeswoman said Coleman died at 1205MDT (1805 GMT).
Coleman played Arnold Jackson in Diff'rent Strokes from 1978 to 1986, famously coining the catchphrase "What you talking 'bout, Willis?"
The actor had a series of financial and legal problems in recent years.
The hospital said he suffered the haemorrhage at his home in Utah and been brought in "conscious and lucid".
His manager, John Alcantar, said that contrary to some reports he had not undergone any surgery in recent days.
He added: "At times, it may not have been apparent, but he always has had fond memories of being an entertainer and appreciates his fans for all their support over the years."
The former child star suffered kidney disease in early age and has had two failed kidney transplants.

I really hated that show, I only watched it occasionally because the theme of the show was jokes.

Short jokes - Always classy
(I've had to lay back a bit on them since my girlfriend is more than a foot shorter than I am, but still, quite amusing)
It's a shame to lose a former child star, but at least it'll save us another Cash Call commercial.
