PAUL Reubens has died after a six-year private battle with cancer.

The actor battled cancer for years before passing away on Sunday night at age 70.

In a post-humous statement posted on his Instagram account after his death, Reubens asked fans to “accept my apology for not going public with what I’ve been facing for the last six years.”

“I have always felt a huge amount of love and respect from my friends, fans and supporters. I have loved you all so much and enjoyed making art for you.”

His estate went on to confirm that the star died on Sunday, adding “Paul bravely and privately fought cancer for years with his trademark tenacity and wit.”
