LOS ANGELES: Disney star Cameron Boyce, who died last week in his sleep following a seizure, suffered from epilepsy, his family confirmed on Wednesday .

The 20-year-old actor, best known for his starring role in the"Descendants" TV movies, passed away"due to a seizure as a result of an ongoing medical condition, and that condition was epilepsy," the family told People magazine.

The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner's office said on Monday that an autopsy had been performed on Boyce, but an official cause of death has yet to be announced. The medical examiner said the actor was found unresponsive at his home on Saturday afternoon and was pronounced dead at the scene. Tributes have poured in for the actor since his death, including from former first lady Michelle Obama, who tweeted a photo with Boyce on Tuesday night."I was lucky enough to share a few moments with Cameron Boyce - on set, at the White House and on a service project - enough time to recognise that not only did he have incredible talent, but also an incredible heart," Obama wrote.
