Not since Richard Wilkins informed Australia that Jeff Goldblum was dead has there been such hysteria over a celeb death that was not quite factually correct.

Enter Nev from Catfish. Nev hosts the popular MTV show with silver fox Max.

They are the dream team.

But our hopes and dreams have come crashing down, as Max announced he is leaving the show.

We are very sad Max is leaving but some fans heard the news from Nev, who framed it all in a v peculiar way. He started his news announce by posting this:

“It is with a very heavy heart, that all of us at the Catfish family say goodbye to @maxjoseph,” Nev wrote.

This is just confusing. IS HE DEAD?!

This is a question many fans were left asking.

Soon after his original message, Nev felt that he needed to clear up the whole ‘is Max dead?’ thing.

Oh. Well, that’s good to know.

We will miss you our silver prince!
