Queer Eye star Bruley the dog has died at the age of 10 after suffering from heart disease.
The little beige French bulldog became an integral part of the squad when the hit series started streaming on Netflix in February 2018.
He was the pooch of show producer Michelle Silva, who would bring him on set during filming and eventually allowed him to appear in shot after he kept wandering up to the Fab Five.
And the five Queer Eye stars have paid tribute to their furry friend in a heartbreaking post.
“RIP to our dear bru bru!” they wrote next to pictures of Bruley.
“Each time we returned to our loft in Kansas City you were always there to greet us and that brought us so much joy. We hope you have an endless supply of treats to munch on.”
Bruley’s owner Michelle confirmed the sad news in a poignant Instagram post.
“My whole heart. My love bug. My best friend. My constant. My soul mate. My everything. I brought him home when he was 9 weeks old on a rainy day in New York City.
“Ten years later on a rainy day in LA, he passed away in my arms on my bedroom floor.
“Bru had been suffering from heart problems, and an instant heart attack was a possibility. He just had too much love and heart for his physical body.
“It all happened so fast, but I held him as he took his last breath, and I was able to tell him I loved him the very most. I told him everyday I loved him more than anything in the world, and I reminded him of that over and over as he slipped out of this life. My best friend and boyfriend held us both.
“He gave me more than I could have ever given him, and I was able to thank him for allowing me to be his mom. He chose me. We got to experience so much together; he loved traveling on planes and looking out the window! He was the ultimate copilot in the car when he wasn’t dangerously sprawled out across my lap as I drove.
“He was so very loved by my family and friends and even ‘non dog people’. He mastered the ‘jump kiss,’ and I always had to explain to people that he wouldn’t buy you dinner first, he just went in for the full make-out.”
She went on: “In the last year of his life, he found fame! Over the course of 16 episodes of @queereye, in just a few moments on screen, you guys all got a glimpse of the Bru I knew and loved. He was hilarious, stubborn, sometimes inappropriate, and always a sucker for a snack. He was pure love.
“It’s been so fun capturing his spirit and sharing more with you all here. I’ve taken a few days to process and grieve and figure out what’s next. I’ve realized, I don’t want to stop sharing the best of Bru. I also want to show you a little of what it was like the last few months dealing with an ailing dog in heart failure as more and more dogs are being diagnosed with the same issues.
“I was so close to completing Bru’s website with long-awaited merch. I’ll get there in time. I’ve also been exploring non-profit opportunities and getting involved in bulldog rescue. There is so much Bru inspired, and it’s so much bigger than I even realized.”
Producer Tyler Hart Instagrammed a tribute to the pooch, telling his followers: “RIP Sweet angel baby @bruley. It was such an honor working alongside you and pretending not to smell your little hearts on set during serious moments.
“But in all honesty – thank you so much for bringing so much joy and laughs on set when they were needed xoxoxoxoxoxo.”
Emotional fans were quick to pay tribute to little Bruley, with one writing: “Queer eye won’t be the same without sweet bruley rip angel pup.”
“Noooooooooo!! May the little precious nugget rest in peace,” tweeted another.
And a third wrote: “Oh no. Not Bruley. He was so stinking cute. I’m so so sorry for all of you.”
