The cast — who have frequently expressed their love for each other and often share photos together — came together in October 2022 after Jordan died following a car crash. He was 67. “Crushed to learn about the loss of @thelesliejordan, the funniest and flirtiest southern gent I’ve ever known,” McCormack wrote via Instagram, referencing the beloved actor’s time on the series. “The joy and laughter he brought to every one of his #WillandGrace episodes was palpable.
