Jamie-Lynn Sigler is mourning the loss of her brother, Adam Sigler, who died unexpectedly Wednesday, after falling into a coma due to a brain hemorrhage.

RIP Adam Sigler

Adam, 41, the eldest brother of the Sopranos actress, had been in the hospital since at least Nov. 8, according to a tweet sent out by Sigler’s close friend, Lance Bass asking for prayers.

The family has not revealed when exactly Adam fell ill, nor have they confirmed cause of death, but sources say that Adam suffered a sudden brain hemorrhage and fell into a coma. Sigler, 33, released a statement on Friday, saying, “Words cannot express how deeply saddened we are by the sudden loss of Adam Sigler. He brought love to everyone around him especially his family, who were by his side when he passed. Adam will continue to be a source of strength and inspiration. We ask that the family’s privacy be respected during this time.”   Adam reportedly died surrounded by close friends and family, including his fiancé, Danielle Piro. “He was engaged. He was such a funny, amazing man. He was an incredible uncle who was loved by all his friends and family. He will be greatly missed,” a source told Us Weekly.  

Sigler, who has another older brother, Brian, frequently mentions her family on various social media accounts, sharing photos of her siblings and parents.
