Gay porn content creator Noah Segsy has died at the age of 22 after drowning in a swimming pool while in Cyprus. The performer, whose real name was Riccardo Staudt, was widely known through his work on OnlyFans and had built a significant following within the LGBTQ+ community. 

According to reports, Staudt was found unconscious in a swimming pool at an apartment complex in Paralimni, in the Famagusta district of Cyprus, on the evening of 24 August. Emergency services were called to the scene at around 9.20pm and he was taken to Famagusta General Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. 

A post-mortem examination later confirmed that the 22-year-old died by drowning. Toxicology tests were also carried out, although results had not been publicly released at the time of reporting. 

The circumstances surrounding Staudt's death remain unclear. Local reports have suggested the swimming pool was relatively shallow, and police in Paralimni are continuing to investigate exactly what happened before he entered the water and got into difficulty. Authorities have not publicly disclosed any further details. 

Born in Germany, Staudt became known online under the name Noah Segsy and amassed a loyal audience through adult content and social media platforms. His death prompted an outpouring of tributes from followers and friends, with messages of condolence appearing across his social media accounts after news of his death emerged. 

A fundraising campaign was launched following his death to help cover the costs of repatriating his body to Germany and arranging his funeral. Reports said the appeal raised more than €20,000 before being paused. The fundraiser described the financial and emotional burden facing his family following the sudden loss. 

Staudt is survived by his mother, Katharina, and his grandmother, Anita.
