Julian McMahon Praised Daughter Madison’s Career Achievements 4 Months Before His Death at 56

Nearly four months before Julian McMahon’s tragic death at 56, he made it clear how overwhelmingly proud he was of his daughter.

“Taught my first yoga class today at @ahanayoga!!” McMahon’s daughter, Madison, wrote via Instagram on March 8. “I guess dreams do come true ✨.”

The Australian actor was the first to comment on the post, hyping up the 25-year-old’s achievement.

“Your [sic] awesome!!!!!” McMahon, who shared Madison with ex-wife Brooke Burns, replied.

Madison replied to her father’s message at the time, playfully correcting his grammar.

“@julianmcmahonofficial, no YOU’RE awesome,” she wrote.

McMahon, who was best known for roles on Charmed, Nip/Tuck and Marvel’s Runaways, died earlier this month after a private battle with an undisclosed form of cancer.

“With an open heart, I wish to share with the world that my beloved husband, Julian McMahon, died peacefully this week after a valiant effort to overcome cancer,” his wife, Kelly McMahon, wrote in a Friday, July 4, statement. “Julian loved life. He loved his family. He loved his friends. He loved his work, and he loved his fans. His deepest wish was to bring joy into as many lives as possible.”

She continued, “We ask for support during this time to allow our family to grieve in privacy. And we wish for all of those to whom Julian brought joy to continue to find joy in life. We are grateful for the memories.”

Julian married Kelly in 2014. He was previously married to Dannii Minogue from 1994 to 1995 and Burns, 47, from 1999 to 2001.

Burns, for her part, broke her silence on Julian’s passing on Saturday, July 5.

“Rest in Peace,” she captioned a throwback photo of the late Australian star and Madison.

In the comments section, Hallmark star Kristoffer Polaha offered his support.

“I’m praying for you and Maddy as you and her especially grieve this out ❤️,” Polaha, 48, replied.

Other stars, including members of Julian’s Charmed family, have also expressed their heartbreak and condolences.

“I’m heartbroken. Julian McMahon was magic. That smile. That laugh. That talent. That presence,” Alyssa Milano wrote via Instagram. “He walked into a room and lit it up — not just with charisma, but with kindness. With mischief. With soulful understanding.”

The 52-year-old actress added, “Julian was more than my TV husband. He was a dear friend. The kind who checks in. The kind who remembers. The kind who shares. The kind who tells you the truth, even when it’s uncomfortable — but always with love.”
