Grease star Jeff Conaway died today after a drug overdose sent him into a coma two weeks ago.
His family are understood to have decided to turn off his life support machine yesterday.
His ex-girlfriend Vikki Lizzi, who claims she has power of attorney over the 60-year-old, tried to block the move.
The actor, who famously played Kenickie in the hit 1978 film, has been in a deep coma since taking an overdose of painkillers earlier this month.
Conaway's family, who have kept a vigil at the Los Angeles hospital over the past two weeks, have been told by doctors that the star is losing his battle to live, according to Radar Online.
