See the tweet at this link.

The message reads: "It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share the news of the passing of our beloved Marcel, the man you all knew and loved as Tim Kruger. To the public, he was the ultimate ginger pornstar; to me, he was a sweet, caring partner of over 20 years. He was also my best friend. He touched the lives of everyone who had the privilege of knowing him.

"I am very aware of the stigma that surrounds deaths in the porn industry, so let me make this very clear to hopefully cut down on the inevitable speculation: Tim's death was a tragic, yet simple accident at home. There were no drugs involved, nor was there any indication of foul play or suicide.

"Though my heart is broken into pieces, I find solace in the countless memories he gifted us. And I know that he died knowing he was loved. Tim's legacy of compassion, love, and joy will live on in all who knew him.

"I am aware that you all will have countless questions, but this is all the information I have to share right now. I would love for everyone to respect his loved ones' time to grieve in privacy. Thank you.

"Rest peacefully, my love. There will never be another one like you."

According to his Wiki page, was born Marcel Bonn on January 25, 1981 and died on February 28, 2025. He initially worked in a sex shop, where he handled video rentals. In 2006 he reached out to Raging Stallion Studios and appeared in his first film. Over his career he worked Hot House, Citébeur, and Cazzo Films (amongst others).

In 2009, he formed his own company TimTales.com, at which he worked until the time of his death with his partner Grobes Geraet, who helped edit his videos.

"Tim Kruger is probably Germany's most famous porn star, both for his large endowment and for his enthusiastic personality," wrote the website Hornet in 2016 in a story about fitness tips by porn stars. "When he smiles on camera or joins in on the action, you don't feel like he's performing; it's like he's just enjoying himself. He's even parlayed his love of porn into his own personal studio, for which he travels the world capturing hot sex with international dudes."

"At the end of February 2025, Kruger died in a domestic accident in his apartment," reads his Wiki page.
