An actor, bodybuilder and model has died aged 41, just a fortnight after posting a poignant message online. Jakub Łoza passed away at 3 am on Sunday, 3 May, his family confirmed to his tens of thousands of social media followers. Only his closest confidants were aware he had been battling an undisclosed illness for some time. A fortnight before his death, he posted online: “I’m currently undergoing treatment. It’s a real phase I’m going through. I’ve never asked, ‘Why me?’ I’ve always said, ‘Jesus, I trust in You. If this is the path, I accept it.’ And you know what? I’ve never felt more at peace than I do now.”
Nevertheless, news of his passing has stunned many. His representative, Ewa Rączy, told local media it arrived “completely out of the blue”. She said: “We’d only seen each other recently through work. He was energetic, looked fantastic, and appeared to be in his prime. There was nothing to indicate anything was amiss. I had no clue, either from him or from his nearest and dearest, that he was facing any health issues.”
Jakub, who had 46,500 Instagram followers, was recognised for roles in popular series and films including “Barwy szczęścia”, “Szpital św. Anny” and “Najpierw ucichły ptaki”.
Beyond acting, he worked as a bodybuilder, personal trainer and model, and regularly encouraged his followers to prioritise their wellbeing and improve their lifestyle. Jakub is said to have lived in Weston-super-Mare, Somerset.
According to a local report from November 2018, he secured victory in the Classic Bodybuilding category at the UKUP (UK Ultimate Physiques) British Finals.
Ewa said: “He was excellent in front of the camera, with a natural ease around people. He was young, full of energy, committed and talented, but also warm and kind.
The sort of person who gave something good to others ” through his presence, professionalism and positive energy. That makes his passing all the harder to come to terms with.”
His funeral is being held today in his Polish hometown of Rzeszów.
