“Rue will never stop loving you,” Press added in another social media tribute. “You were the best dog dad ever.”
Musser rose to fame in 2005 when he competed on I Wanna Be a Soap Star season 2, which he eventually won. His reality TV victory helped him land his All My Children role of Del Henry, replacing Winsor Harmon. He starred in the long-running soap from 2005 to 2007. Musser, a former Abercrombie & Fitch model, also appeared on Rita Rocks, Desperate Housewives and Road to the Altar. Musser also had a featured role in the 2010 movie Grown Ups, playing “Guy in the Water Park.”
“I loved this guy. Cannot believe he is gone,” Adam Sandler, who starred in and produced Grown Ups, wrote via Instagram on Saturday. “Such a wonderful, funny good man. Thinking of Alec Musser and his family and sending all my love. A true great sweetheart of a person.”
Musser is survived by his family and Press. They debuted her engagement ring in July 2023.
“If you can’t beat, ‘em join em 🤡,” he wrote via Instagram at the time, sharing a pic of the couple at a carnival. In a follow-up comment, Musser added, “Just to clarify the ring is old news. We did not get engaged at the fair 🤦🏼♂️.”
