The Nashville native had been dealing with a neuromuscular disease.
Isabelle “Izzy” Tate, who appeared in the pilot episode of 9-1-1: Nashville, has died. She was 23.
She died peacefully Sunday after facing a rare form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth, a neuromuscular disease, the McCray Agency, which represented the Nashville native, told The Hollywood Reporter.
This week, Kim McCray, owner of the talent agency, said on social media: “We are deeply saddened and completely heartbroken to share that Isabelle Tate passed away … I’ve known Izzy since she was a teenager and she recently returned to acting. She booked the first series she auditioned for, 9-1-1: Nashville. She had a wonderful time.”
The post included Tate’s family calling the actress “full of fire, a fighter, never once making excuses for the fact that she might have a disability relative to others. She was also quite musically inclined, often spending hours writing and recording songs with friends and even publishing a few. What she loved the most though was spending time with family and friends, always the life of the party.”
After acting and modeling as a child, Tate graduated from Middle Tennessee State University with a business degree. Her return to acting with 9-1-1: Nashville was her first booking for an adult role.
The pilot episode was shot in June and debuted Oct. 6. As a tribute, the Oct. 30 episode of the series will include an in memoriam end card for Tate.
ABC’s 911: Nashville, starring Jessica Capshaw and Chris O’Donnell, is produced by ABC and 20th Television. The series marks the third show in the first-responder franchise...
