While the shocking revelation of the death of beloved “Good Times” actor John Amos is continuing to make headlines, this latest update is one you truly won’t believe.

The announcement of the beloved actor's passing was delayed as part of his last wishes, according to his longtime publicist, Belinda Foster. The reason for this request had a lot to do with his daughter.

The news of John Amos’ passing was announced earlier this week, shocking many many fans, colleagues, and even his own family members. In the midst of honoring the actor’s life and successful career, the people who were close to him are also speaking about the circumstances that surrounded his death.

Following the news that Good Times star John Amos‘ death was not announced until over a month after he first passed away — which was when his daughter, Shannon, reportedly found out through media reports — TMZ has obtained a copy of his death certificate.
