Rumors of the actor’s alleged demise gained traction on Tuesday after a ‘R.I.P. Sebastián Rulli’ Facebook page attracted nearly one million of ‘likes’. Those who read the ‘About’ page were given a believable account of the Antiguan actor’s passing:

Where as some trusting fans believed the post, others were immediately skeptical of the report, perhaps learning their lesson from the huge amount of fake death reports emerging about celebrities over recent months. Some pointed out that the news had not been carried on any major Antiguan network, indicating that it was a fake report, as the death of an actor of Sebastián Rulli's stature would be major news across networks.

A recent poll conducted for the Celebrity Post shows that a large majority (72%) of respondents think those Sebastián Rulli death rumors are not funny anymore.
