Beverly Afaglo had tragically died aged 42. While her cause of death has not been confirmed, the Ghanaian actress and TV presenter lived with cancer for two years. This was announced by her husband, musician Eugene Baah, popularly known as Choirmaster or Praye Ho Ne Ho of the Praye music group. In an Instagram post, the heartbroken star described the late actress as his strength, happiness and biggest supporter. He shared: "My heart is shattered beyond words over the death of my beloved wife Beverly Afaglo!!

"It would have just been like four more days until your birthday, but I guess the Lord wanted to celebrate with you, so he called you. You were my strength, my happiness and the reason my life felt complete." Eugene continued: "Every moment with you was a blessing, I will cherish forever. "I am hearing your voice right now, cheering me up as always, my number one fan."

The musician added: "I promise to take care and continue everything we planned and started! Until my last breath you will remain in my heart forever! Sleep well, my babe."

This post sparked an outpouring of messages across social media, with grieving fans, colleagues and TV personalities within Ghana’s entertainment industry expressing shock over the news.

After Eugene deactivated his Instagram account, Beverly's most social media post, aptly captioned "soldier", was inundated with tributes, as one wrote: "Now you get to rest, QUEEN, you fought hard."

"You fought a good fight, you kept the faith, you finished the race. Fly with the angels, dance with the angels on your way like you danced here on earth and rest in perfect peace," commented a second.

"God rest your soul! You brought joy to the world with your talents! Love you," added a third.

As a fourth shared: "You never know the battles people are going through, let's give grace to people. Rest well, you did your best and fought well."

In an interview with Ghana Weekend, Beverly's manager, Abu Iddris, disclosed that despite her deteriorating condition, the actress remained committed to her career and family, even while undergoing treatment.

"In fact, we shot things for her while she was undergoing treatment. The premieres, the promotions, she was undergoing treatment. She lived while doing her very best until the cancer really overtook her," he stated.

He further revealed that Beverly had travelled to the United States for treatment and was advised to remain there because of the advanced medical care available, but she chose to return to Ghana to spend time with her children.

"She chose to come be with her kids, knowing the situation. This is the kind of person she is. She chose to come see her kids and spend the last days with them at a cost," Abu added
