Steve Bing - father of Liz Hurley's son Damian, who was also known as a Hollywood playboy, multimillionaire real estate heir, filmmaker and philanthropist - has killed himself at the age of 55. 

Bing plunged to his death from the 27th floor of his luxurious Los Angeles apartment tower around 1pm on Monday having become depressed amid a lack of social contact in lockdown, sources told TMZ. 

A Vegas high-roller and strip-club aficionado who was 'dedicated in equal parts to philanthropy, politics and women', he used his wealth to immerse himself in a glamour of Hollywood, producing films such as Sylvester Stallone flick Get Carter and Polar Express, starring Tom Hanks.
