Spartacus Andy Whitfield dies His Spartacus alter-ego may have seemed invincible but the man who played him was not. He has an older sister named Laura and his parents are Robert and Pat Whitfield.

Who was Andy Whitfield He was born in Anglesey, Wales, UK on 17 October 1971 under the zodiac sign of Libra. Andy was an inspiration to all of us as he faced this very personal battle with courage, strength and grace. “We were fortunate to have worked with Andy in 'Spartacus' and came to know that the man who played a champion on-screen was also a champion in his own life. “We are deeply saddened by the loss of our dear friend and colleague, Andy Whitfield,” said Starz president and CEO Chris Albrecht.

Whitfield - who was born in Wales and lived in Australia - was a virtual unknown when he was cast as the title hero in "Spartacus," a hit original series for the Starz network that was known for its graphic violence and sexuality. Whitfield enjoyed critical and ratings success on Spartacus first season in 2010 after playing the titular. The 39-year-old actor is survived by his wife and two children. In a statement provided to Associated Press, Whitfield's wife, Vashti, called her husband a "beautiful young warrior" who died on a "sunny morning" in the "arms of his loving wife." It is our sad duty to report that Andy Whitfield, the original star of Spartacus: Blood and Sand, died of non-Hodgkins Lymphoma in his home country of Australia yesterday.
