‘Real Husbands Of Hollywood’ Actress Erica Ash Has Passed Away After Cancer Battle

She was 46 years old. 

 It is with our deepest regret that we report that actress Erica Ash has lost her battle with cancer.

Ash began her career with supporting roles in Broadway shows like “The Lion King,” before auditioning and winning a spot on “The Big Gay Sketch Show.” After spending two seasons on the sketch comedy show, she went on to become a featured performer on “Madtv” during its 14th and final season before earning one of her biggest roles as Bridgette Hart, Kevin Hart’s ex-wife, in the BET mockumentary series “Real Husbands Of Hollywood.” 

Other credits in Ash’s catalog include Mary Charles “M-Chuck” Calloway on “Survivor’s Remorse,” the short-lived series “In Contempt” and “Sacrifice,” both of which appeared on BET.
