Actor Archie Lyndhurst's cause of death has been revealed by his family.
The "So Awkward" star, who died at the age of 19 in September, suffered a brain hemmorhage. His mother, Lucy Lyndhurst, revealed the details a doctor shared with her and the late star's father in a lengthy Instagram post Friday.
"He died from an Intracerebral Haemorrhage caused by Acute Lymphoblastic Lymphoma/Leukaemia. This is not Leukaemia as we know it, the word Acute in medical terms means rapid," Lucy shared.
The mourning mother said the doctor "assured us that there wasn't anything anyone could have done as Archie showed no signs of illness." The doctor informed the parents that the actor had "numerous bleeds on the brain."

"The results utterly floored us to think something like this could happen. It’s very rare and around only 800 people a year die from it," Lucy continued.
Archie's father is Nicholas Lyndhurst from the British sitcom "Goodnight Sweetheart."
Lucy's Instagram post featured a number of photos of her late son throughout his life, including a touching photo of him and his father laughing, as well as more recent ones in which he poses in front of a colorful graffiti wall and embraces his girlfriend.
