Sadly, the body of former Growing Pains star Andrew Koenig was discovered in a park in Vancouver on Thursday, according to CNN. The actor was reported missing on Valentine's Day and the search had been on ever since. Family, friends, and volunteers all pitched in to help the police try and locate him.

The parents of Andrew, 41, gave a press conference and his father said "My son took his own life. He was obviously in a lot of pain." Andrew's mother thanked the media for their support and then asked that they respect the privacy of their family going forward. Our condolences go out to his friends and family at this time.
