Charles Keating has passed. I am so very sad.

Along w/ @LindaDano he was my very first

acting teacher. The actress I am is because of

them.

WOW - I am so shocked!! He provided AW fans with many memorable moments. God rest him, and bless his family, friends, colleagues and fans.

May the Lord be with Mr. Keating and his loved ones. He truly was a magnificent actor.

I remember him. RIP.

I hear Mark Pinter's Facebook said it first than Alicia Coppola tweeted it

No official confirmation though

I am quite saddened by this. My thoughts and prayers are with his loved ones. He would have been marvelous against Strasser and Slezak in the early-mid nineties.

That is terribly sad news. Charles Keating was so fabulous on AW, I will never forget Carl.

Oh no. One of my favorites.

It's been confirmed

He was indeed a very talented and unique actor. Also, he was married to the same woman for over 50 years - a rarity for any marriage these days, but especially a show biz one.

Never saw him on the soaps, but remember his Sex and the City episode and he'll always be Rex Mottram to me from the brilliant Brideshead Revisited.

RIP my precious Carl Hutchins! You will be missed dearly!

Carl/Niles/Damon/James... Charles Keating brought so much class to daytime. He will be sorely missed!

Dr. Lazarre and that talisman he'd hypnotize Silver with... that's actually the first role I saw him in.

Sad to hear this.

He had so much charisma, and such a rich laugh.

He took a potentially cheesy villain role and became beloved by AW fans. Not an easy feat.

Victoria Wyndham must be devastated.
