(NewsNation Now) — Original Saved by the Bell star Dustin Diamond has died after three-week fight with cancer, his agent Roger Paul confirmed to NewsNation Monday. He was 44.
Diamond, best known for playing "Screech" on the hit ’90s sitcom, was hospitalized at the beginning of the year in Florida. His team disclosed he had cancer shortly after.
“He was diagnosed with this brutal, relentless form of malignant cancer only three weeks ago,” Paul said in a statement. “In that time, it managed to spread rapidly throughout his system; the only mercy it exhibited was its sharp and swift execution. Dustin did not suffer. He did not have to lie submerged in pain. For that, we are grateful.”
Saved by the Bell aired from 1989 to 1993, and its spinoffs included Saved by the Bell: The College Years and Saved by the Bell: The New Class, both of which Diamond starred in. A sequel was launched on Peacock this fall featuring many from the original cast, including Elizabeth Berkley Lauren, Mario Lopez, Tiffani Thiessen and Mark-Paul Gosselaar. Diamond was not included.
“Dustin was a humorous and high-spirited individual whose greatest passion was to make others laugh. He was able to sense and feel other peoples’ emotions to such a length that he was able to feel them too — a strength and a flaw, all in one,” wrote Paul.
Diamond has been sued several times for delinquent taxes and in foreclosure proceedings for missing mortgage payments. He has appeared on reality TV shows, made a sex tape and produced a tell-all documentary on Lifetime TV called The Unauthorized Saved by the Bell Story. In 2015, he was sentenced to serve 4 months in jail for his part in a Wisconsin barroom stabbing.
Dustin also starred in a handful of reality television series including the 5th season of Celebrity Fit Club, The Weakest Link and Celebrity Boxing 2. In December 2013, Diamond appeared on an episode of OWN’s Where Are They Now? and became a house member in the 12th season of Celebrity Big Brother.
“Dustin Diamond was a character in and of himself: an unpredictable spitfire who always left us shocked, but never left us bored,” Paul said. “We are thankful he trusted us enough to share his genuine, authentic self with our team. We wish you knew him in the way that we did.”

Wow! Just hearing this made me give thanks for life, health and strength. He was 44 years of age. I'll be 45 in just six days. But then again, it was a ruthless, relentless, brutal malignant form of cancer. Cancer will take you out and could care less who it affects. I've said it time and time again. That is the way it goes.
I'll comment further when I get more details. In the meantime, hug your loved ones a little tighter and let them know you love them. Cherish them while they are here. Give them flowers now instead of having to give your loved ones flowers at their Celebration of Life.
Just Saying.

R.I.P. Distin Diamond :'( . It's very sad to see him going at such a young age - and it's a tragic reminder that cancer is absolutely merciless.
My condolences to his friends and family.
