It is a sad day in TV world as another beloved  TV host has died. Chef Anthony Bourdain has died of an apparent suicide.

According to TMZ Bourdain was found dead in his hotel room in France. The network says Bourdain’s friend Eric Ripert discovered the body Friday morning. He had hanged himself. They were on location, shooting an episode of his award-winning show, ‘Parts Unknown.’

Bourdain broke his way into stardom by becoming a chef and then and book author. Anthony jumped into television after his number one selling book, “Kitchen Confidential: Adventures in the Culinary Underbelly,”making him a television success.

His first show was “A Cook’s Tour” on the Food Network, but the series ‘No Reservations’ on the Travel Channel was his breakout hit.

In 2013, ‘Parts Unknown’ premiered on CNN, and it immediately won a Peabody Award.

Bourdain was 61.

Anthony’s suicide comes just 3 days after Kate Spade took her own life by hanging herself in her NYC home.
