Randy Martin dead: Texas Flip N Move star nicknamed Lone Wolf dies after cancer battle

Randy Martin has died at the age of 65 after a battle with cancer.

Nicknamed the Lone Wolf, Randy is best known for his role as a reality TV home renovator on Texas Flip N Move.

His death was announced on his Facebook page on Wednesday, while co-stars from the show also released the same statement. It read: "We are broken hearted over The Lone Wolf Randy Martin who passed away early this morning. Please pray for his wife and family as they navigate this difficult time. You will be missed."

Alongside the statement on his page was a reel of images of the star.

Randy's longtime friend and associate Donna Snow told TMZ the star had passed away at home following a battle with cancer. She revealed he had his wife Judy by his side. Judy confirmed Donna's account and explained how Randy was diagnosed with liver cancer in May.

The Lone Wolf was a fixture on Texas Flip N Move from the early days of the show when it was on the DIY Network. He continued to be a main part of the show until it ended in 2017.

Following the news of his death, fans took to social media to share messages of condolence. One Twitter user wrote: "He was a gem and could make you laugh. Sorry to hear this, thoughts and prayers for his family and friends. May he Rest In Peace. God Bless."
