“The band asks for your patience and understanding as they process the news of Bob’s passing,” a spokesperson told the outlet.
This statement comes after weeks of speculation and mourning from fans and the music community.
Bryar, who was with My Chemical Romance from 2004 to 2010, played a significant role in the band's most iconic era, contributing to their critically acclaimed album "The Black Parade." His departure from the band was followed by a period of relative obscurity in the music scene, with Bryar later focusing on real estate and animal rescue efforts.
His last known activity was a social media post on November 4, where he simply wrote "TULSI," leaving many to ponder the meaning behind this cryptic message.
The specifics of his death remain undisclosed, but no foul play is suspected, adding to the tragic and mysterious circumstances of his passing.
The band's delayed response has left many fans questioning the depth of the relationship between Bryar and his former bandmates, especially in the aftermath of such a personal tragedy.
