Koby Falks, gay Australian adult film star, dies at 42, just days after sharing a deeply personal Instagram post about self-acceptance.
Falks wrote in his final post on May 28: “Took me years to drop the act. Turns out, the scariest thing wasn’t being rejected—it was being seen. No more masks. No more performance. Just me, as I am. Raw. Real. Free. “Yeah, I f***d up along the way. Yeah, I wore the armour a bit too long. But I never stopped searching for the bloke underneath it all. This is for the younger me who just wanted to be loved without pretending. And for anyone else out there still hiding— You don’t have to be a symbol. Just be you. Rough edges and all. That’s where the beauty is.”
Otherwise known as Anthony Cox, the gay adult film star lived in Australia with his partner, fellow content creator and performer Sam Brownell.

Falks has reportedly died at age 42 according to social media posts from his real-life partner and fellow adult content creator Sam Brownell, and a statement from the public relations agency that represented Falks’s career.
Falks was born in Cloncurry, Queensland, Australia on September 7, 1982,
Despite only being active for three years in the adult film industry, Falks was credited in as many as 76 projects during that period — all of which were released through RawFuckClub or independently through the performer’s OnlyFans page.
The first confirmation of Falks’s passing was posted on his official Instagram page — followed by 126,000 fans — on Sunday, June 1. The caption read: “Koby Falks, better known to his family and friends as Anthony Cox, passed away earlier this week. He was loved by many and will be missed”.
During his three years working as a gay adult film star, the vast majority of scenes featuring Falks had him paired up with his real-life partner, Sam Brownell. Brownell confirmed that his partner of many years had died by sharing a short message via Instagram story, which read: “I will love you always.”
Matthew Leigh, founder of the Melbourne-based PR firm (Mista PR) that Falks was signed to, shared an emotional Instagram post that read:
“Though our time working together was brief, the impact Koby had was anything but small. From the moment we connected, I was struck by his warmth, his charisma, and his incredible professionalism. He was organized, kind-hearted, and deeply respectful — the kind of person you instantly felt grateful to work with. It was an honor to represent his remarkable body of work and to witness firsthand the power of his presence, both on and off screen. His ability to connect with people, not just here in Australia but across the world, was something truly special.
Koby wasn’t just a client — he was a light, a creative force, and a genuinely beautiful soul. Never did I imagine I would be writing such a post, especially for someone I had the privilege of managing. And I sincerely hope I never have to again. To Koby’s family, his close friends, and his extended ‘family’ of fans and followers — my deepest condolences. We have lost a trailblazing creative spirit far too soon. But I truly believe his light and legacy will continue shining
brightly above. Rest peacefully, Koby. You will be missed, always.”
May he rest in peace and our condoleances go out to his partner, family and friends.
