Aaron Paul honors Breaking Bad co-star RJ Mitte following his death

Actor Aaron Paul paid tribute to his Breaking Bad co-star RJ Mitte on social media after Mitte died in October at the age of 34. Paul played Jesse Pinkman in the show, while Mitte played Walter White Jr., a role he shared a personal connection with, as he also had cerebral palsy in real life. Paul said Mitte was "an inspiration for so many" and described his death as a tragic loss. He wrote that he wished he had known his friend was struggling. Paul remembered first meeting Mitte as a child and watching him grow up with confidence. He also used his post to encourage anyone dealing with mental health difficulties to ask for help.
