Finding Prince Charming star Jasen Kaplan has died at the age of 46 - weeks after the 'sudden' passing of his former castmate Chad Spodick.

Kaplan sadly died in hospital in New York City on New Year's Eve, Page Six reported on Thursday.

An NYPD spokesperson said an investigation is currently underway in regards to the death of a 46-year-old male at the late star's apartment building while the chief medical examiner will determine Kaplan's cause of death.

Kaplan had appeared on season one of the reality dating series when it aired in 2016 - but was eliminated during week two. He was also a celebrity make-up artist, working with stars such as Eva Longoria, Lynda Carter, Kelly Osbourne, Bethenny Frankel, Sonja Morgan and Cyndi Lauper.
